Overview

About 7 Elder Close

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

7 Elder Close is a detached house in Marchwood, Southampton, Southampton (SO40 4SN). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since August 2001 — that's 25 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 73 m² it sits well below the postcode median (121 m² across 5 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement.
