Overview

About 8 Chepstow Close

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

8 Chepstow Close is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Totton, Southampton, Southampton (SO40 8SE). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (October 2013) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since January 2011. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average and window efficiency went from Average to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 90), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since March 2011 — that's 15 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Across 1996–2011, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £258,000 sits 79.8% above the 2011 sale of £143,500. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 77% of similar EPCs). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2017.
