Overview

About 3 Prospect Road

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

3 Prospect Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Birkenhead (CH42 8LE). It has a recorded floor area of 228 m² (around 2454 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. The latest certificate (June 2012) shows an F (score 36), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 78% of similar EPCs). 11 years since the last transfer (December 2014). Today's modelled estimate of £666,000 is 35.9% above the 2014 sale price. One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2017.
