Overview

About 9 Downing Road

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

9 Downing Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Bootle (L20 9LS). It has a recorded floor area of 90 m² (around 969 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (September 2018) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since October 1996, a hold of 30 years that's notably long for the area.
