About Fairfield
Fairfield is a four-bedroom detached house in Wirral (CH61 1BU). It has a recorded floor area of 180 m² (around 1938 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (October 2015) shows an F (score 38), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 93), a 5-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include attached land beyond the plot. It has already been extended once and our model flags further extension potential, a sign of buyer flexibility.
At 180 m² it's 15.7% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (214 m² median across 8 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs).

Most recent transfer: August 2022 at £742,500. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
