Overview

About 5 Wood Street

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

5 Wood Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Port Sunlight, Wirral, Wirral (CH62 4UY). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 858 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. There is a swimming pool on the plot, uncommon for the area. Period features are noted in the property record. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The latest certificate (November 2010) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 58). The latest certificate is from November 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Last sale on file: £205,000 in September 2021. Across the public record there are 6 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. 3 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1997–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 6% per year.
