8 Jacobs Walk is a detached house in Totton, Southampton, Southampton (SO40 9JU). It has a recorded floor area of 126 m² (around 1356 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since August 1996 — that's 30 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 126 m² the property is well over the postcode median (64 m² across 11 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 82% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £371,000 sits 272.9% above the 1996 sale of £99,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£73/sq ft) was about 61.6% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2018. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
8 Jacobs Walk's carbon output runs well above what efficient homes in the postcode produce.
