Apartment 3, 18 Knight Street, Liverpool, L1 9DS

Apartment 3 is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Liverpool (L1 9DS). It has a recorded floor area of 57 m² (around 614 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band C. At 57 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (57–95 m²). The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the top. On EPC score it ranks first in the building (82 versus a worst of 66). The latest certificate (October 2023) returns a B (score 82), comfortably above the UK average. When first surveyed in November 2013 the rating was C, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good and main heating went from Poor to Average. Main heating runs on electricity.

It hasn't traded since December 2007, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 57 m² it sits well below the postcode median (88 m² across 27 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 89% of similar EPCs).
