Overview

About 4 Montfort College

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

4 Montfort College is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Romsey (SO51 5PL). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (October 2008); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Average and main heating went from Poor to Average; while wall efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and lighting dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 84 m² this is the 33rd smallest of 42 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 15–102 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 42 units on file. Other recorded features include a basement.

At 84 m² the property is well over the postcode median (61 m² across 41 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 73% of similar EPCs). Last sold in November 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years. Across the public record there are 6 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. Across 1996–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.5% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£299/sq ft) was about 15.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
