Overview

About 21 Hesketh Avenue

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

21 Hesketh Avenue is a semi-detached house in Birkenhead (CH42 6RR). It has a recorded floor area of 165 m² (around 1776 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2013) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since May 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 165 m² the property is well over the postcode median (123 m² across 6 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2009.
