Overview

About 5 Buxton Road

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

5 Buxton Road is a mid-terrace house in Birkenhead (CH42 1PA). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 990 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (February 2020) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump.

Held since May 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £120,000 is 41.2% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£86/sq ft) was about 66.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
