98a is a mid-terrace house in West Kirby, Wirral, Wirral (CH48 0RE). It has a recorded floor area of 76 m² (around 818 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 76 m² this is the 21st smallest of 31 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 27–200 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C, with this unit at the top. On EPC score it ranks first in the building (80 versus a worst of 23). The latest certificate (October 2015) shows a C (score 80), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 82). The latest certificate is from October 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
