Get started31 Merton Road is a mid-terrace house in Wallasey (CH45 4QY). It has a recorded floor area of 46 m² (around 495 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (March 2020) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in October 2009 the rating was G, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. At 46 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 19 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 40–90 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom.
Held since February 2001 — that's 25 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £118,000 sits 329.1% above the 2001 sale of £27,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£56/sq ft) was about 31.1% below the postcode norm. At 46 m² it sits well below the postcode median (80 m² across 18 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs).
Recommended upgrades on file would lift this property by multiple EPC bands.
