About 81 Bedford Road

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

81 Bedford Road is an end-of-terrace house in Bootle (L20 2DL). It has a recorded floor area of 76 m² (around 818 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (March 2020) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. Earlier certificates rated it B (September 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 89).

It hasn't traded since May 2007, a hold of 19 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. Across 1996–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £126,000 sits 56.3% above the 2007 sale of £80,625.
