Overview

About 3 Water Street

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

3 Water Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Wirral (CH62 5HB). It has a recorded floor area of 102 m² (around 1094 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. The latest certificate (March 2010) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (September 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Very Good, lighting went from Good to Very Good and main heating went from Poor to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The latest certificate is from March 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 15 years, with the last transfer in April 2011. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused, 1 pending. Past consents include new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. An active application for an extension is awaiting a decision. At 102 m² the property is well over the postcode median (72 m² across 12 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2000–2011, sale prices on this property compounded at 7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £263,000 is 46.6% above the 2011 sale price.
