8 Opal Close, Litherland, Liverpool, L21 7RE

8 Opal Close is an end-of-terrace house in Litherland, Liverpool, Liverpool (L21 7RE). It has a recorded floor area of 109 m² (around 1173 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2013) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since February 2008, 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 109 m² the property is well over the postcode median (70 m² across 17 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2005. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2002–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 16.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £192,000 is 28% above the 2008 sale price.
