Overview

About 26 Barnsdale Avenue

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

26 Barnsdale Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Wirral (CH61 1BG). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 947 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2014) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in August 2013 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. It has already been extended once and our model flags further extension potential, a sign of buyer flexibility.

Today's modelled estimate of £279,000 sits 73.8% above the 2013 sale of £160,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£169/sq ft) was about 15.5% below the postcode norm. Last sold in November 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.
