About 2 Alder Hill Drive

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

2 Alder Hill Drive is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Totton, Southampton, Southampton (SO40 8JB). It has a recorded floor area of 90 m² (around 969 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2021) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 82).

Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2011. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
