This home is in band F, which costs £3,330 a year in Test Valley for 2026/27. The band is from the agent's description, so check it before you rely on it.

Figures from MHCLG (Open Government Licence v3): the average bill for each band across Test Valley, including the typical parish precept, so a parish's own bill can differ a little. Discounts lower the bill, such as 25% off for an adult living alone. Check a home's band on GOV.UK.
