18 Holmwood Avenue, Wirral, CH61 1AX

18 Holmwood Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Wirral (CH61 1AX). It has a recorded floor area of 143 m² (around 1539 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (April 2012) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in October 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Very Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 16 years, with the last transfer in May 2010. Today's modelled estimate of £371,000 sits 100.5% above the 2010 sale of £185,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£120/sq ft) was about 38.7% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2010. Past consents include an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
