Overview

About 17 Wood Road

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

17 Wood Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Ashurst, Southampton, Southampton (SO40 7BD). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (August 2015) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 83). The latest certificate is from August 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2021. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2005–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £452,000 is 45.3% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£336/sq ft) was about 44.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in February 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.
