About 12 Magazine Road
12 Magazine Road is a mid-terrace house in Wirral (CH62 3LH). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 784 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (May 2009) shows a G (score 1), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Main heating runs on electricity.

Held since December 2009 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 73 m² it's 20.5% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (92 m² median across 52 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 2009–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 16.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £129,000 sits 94% above the 2009 sale of £66,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£85/sq ft) was about 55.3% below the postcode norm.
