About 5 York House
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
5 York House is a two-bedroom detached house in West Kirby, Wirral, Wirral (CH48 3JF). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. Tenure is freehold. At 86 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 3 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 86–100 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (63 versus a best of 70). Other recorded features include a balcony. The latest certificate (February 2024) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 69).
It hasn't traded since January 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £253,000 sits 55.2% above the 2007 sale of £163,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£176/sq ft) was about 22% below the postcode norm. At 86 m² it sits well below the postcode median (140 m² across 16 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
