Overview

About 17 Staplehurst Drive

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

17 Staplehurst Drive is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Birkenhead (CH42 2BF). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 782 sq ft) and council tax band A. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (November 2009) returns a high B (score 86), putting the home a stone's throw from an A rating. The latest certificate is from November 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal.
