About 16 Barker Road
16 Barker Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Wirral (CH61 3XH). It has a recorded floor area of 144 m² (around 1550 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe.
