Overview

About 6 Dorset Gardens

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

6 Dorset Gardens is a semi-detached house in Birkenhead (CH42 2DX). It has a recorded floor area of 64 m² (around 689 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. At 64 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 12 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 63–77 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in October 2013 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since.
