About 27 Ravenswood Avenue

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

27 Ravenswood Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Birkenhead (CH42 4NY). It has a recorded floor area of 116 m² (around 1249 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump.

At 116 m² the property is well over the postcode median (78 m² across 29 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.
