23 Reservoir Road North, Birkenhead, CH42 8LT

23 Reservoir Road North is a five-bedroom detached house in Birkenhead (CH42 8LT). It has a recorded floor area of 228 m² (around 2454 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in July 2012 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal.
