Overview

About 3 Ferndale Road

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

3 Ferndale Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Marchwood, Southampton, Southampton (SO40 4XR). It has a recorded floor area of 116 m² (around 1245 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (January 2011) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 116 m² the property is well over the postcode median (89 m² across 16 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs). Across 2002–2011, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £388,000 sits 55.2% above the 2011 sale of £250,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£201/sq ft) was about 17.9% below the postcode norm. Last sold in October 2011, so it's been off the market for around 15 years.
