Overview

About 17 Kestrel Close

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

17 Kestrel Close is a five-bedroom detached house in Marchwood, Southampton, Southampton (SO40 4XL). It has a recorded floor area of 162 m² (around 1748 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (August 2009) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 69), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since December 2009, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 162 m² the property is well over the postcode median (121 m² across 15 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 87% of similar EPCs). Across 1995–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £467,000 sits 51.6% above the 2009 sale of £308,000.
