Overview

About 1 Magazine Road

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

1 Magazine Road is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Wirral (CH62 3LH). It has a recorded floor area of 63 m² (around 678 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (January 2015) shows an F (score 36), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it E (November 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 4-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 63 m² it sits well below the postcode median (92 m² across 52 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £184,000 sits 75.2% above the 2018 sale of £105,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£155/sq ft) was about 18.3% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2021. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Most recent transfer: July 2018 at £105,000.
