About 1 Grafton Drive
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
1 Grafton Drive is a four-bedroom detached house in Wirral (CH49 0TX). It has a recorded floor area of 217 m² (around 2336 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (September 2015) shows an F (score 32), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 73), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings.
Held since November 1996 — that's 30 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. At 217 m² the property is well over the postcode median (119 m² across 17 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £423,000 sits 429.1% above the 1996 sale of £79,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£34/sq ft) was about 74.2% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: a loft conversion approved in 2001. Past consents include a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
