About 12 Willmer Road

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

12 Willmer Road is a mid-terrace house in Birkenhead (CH42 0JE). It has a recorded floor area of 147 m² (around 1582 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (August 2013) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since June 2013. Between certificates, lighting dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 73), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 147 m² the property is well over the postcode median (100 m² across 30 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.
