About 9 Birkdale Drive

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

9 Birkdale Drive is a two-bedroom detached house in Bury (BL8 2SG). It has a recorded floor area of 93 m² (around 1001 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (January 2015) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). The latest certificate is from January 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£221/sq ft) was about 31.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in April 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.
