About 7 Willowbank Road

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

7 Willowbank Road is a five-bedroom semi-detached house in Birkenhead (CH42 7JU). It has a recorded floor area of 139 m² (around 1496 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2013) shows an F (score 27), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at F across 2 certificates since March 2012. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 3-band jump.
