Apartment 16, 9 Laburnum Road, Wallasey, CH45 5ES

Apartment 16 is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Wallasey (CH45 5ES). It has a recorded floor area of 49 m² (around 527 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band B. At 49 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 14 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 46–58 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (December 2015) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from December 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in August 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£213/sq ft) was about 23.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 49 m² it's 24.6% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (65 m² median across 35 EPCs).
