Local market context
Apartment 8 is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Liverpool (L1 8DZ). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. At 80 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (80–160 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (September 2021) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.
Untraded for 23 years, with the last transfer in December 2003. At 80 m² it's 16.7% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (96 m² median across 11 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 82% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £171,000 is 31.5% above the 2003 sale price.
