Overview

About 9 Benedict Street

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

9 Benedict Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Bootle (L20 2EJ). It has a recorded floor area of 81 m² (around 872 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (May 2012) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 3 certificates since February 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Poor; while window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Held since June 2004 — that's 22 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Today's modelled estimate of £110,000 sits 214.3% above the 2004 sale of £35,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£40/sq ft) was about 21% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 82% of similar EPCs).
