About 8 Melksham Drive
8 Melksham Drive is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Wirral (CH61 4YE). It has a recorded floor area of 70 m² (around 753 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2015) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.
Held since January 1999 — that's 27 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. Today's modelled estimate of £231,000 sits 366.7% above the 1999 sale of £49,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£66/sq ft) was about 57.2% below the postcode norm.
