About Hill Crest
Hill Crest is a four-bedroom detached house in Braishfield, Romsey, Romsey (SO51 0PN). It has a recorded floor area of 105 m² (around 1130 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (April 2009) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from April 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since December 2009, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 105 m² the property is well over the postcode median (51 m² across 8 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2003–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £567,000 sits 62% above the 2009 sale of £350,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£310/sq ft) was about 17.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2010.
