About Lowlands
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Lowlands is a three-bedroom detached house in Woodlands, Southampton, Southampton (SO40 7GX). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 853 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (July 2010) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The latest certificate is from July 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 79 m² it sits well below the postcode median (128 m² across 9 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Today's modelled estimate of £577,000 is 31.1% above the 2010 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£516/sq ft) was about 102% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
