Overview

About 18 Gordon Drive

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

18 Gordon Drive is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Dovecot, Liverpool, Liverpool (L14 7PY). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 700 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (January 2025) returns a high B (score 86), putting the home a stone's throw from an A rating. When first surveyed in October 2009 the rating was D, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good.

It hasn't traded since January 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area.
