Overview

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). Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 90 m² the property is well over the postcode median (52 m² across 44 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Sold May 2021 for £319,000. 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. Across 1996–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £355,000 is 11.3% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£329/sq ft) was about 52.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 2 Alder Hill Drive is modelled from its 90 m² EPC floor area, its 5 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in SO40 8JB. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 5 sales are recorded for 2 Alder Hill Drive. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 2 Alder Hill Drive was lodged in February 2021 at band C and is valid until February 2031. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 2 Alder Hill Drive. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 12 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SO40 8JB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
2 Alder Hill Drive is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
