How the estimate is made
The estimate for 14 Vale Road is modelled from its 62 m² EPC floor area, its 6 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in L23 5RZ. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.

About 14 Vale Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
14 Vale Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Crosby, Liverpool, Liverpool (L23 5RZ). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 663 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2012) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in February 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Good to Very Poor. The latest certificate is from February 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 62 m² it sits well below the postcode median (95 m² across 12 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 1995–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £207,000 is 18.3% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£264/sq ft) was about 59.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold September 2021 for £175,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 14 Vale Road is modelled from its 62 m² EPC floor area, its 6 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in L23 5RZ. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 6 sales are recorded for 14 Vale Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 14 Vale Road was lodged in February 2012 at band D and expired in February 2022, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 14 Vale Road. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 21 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from L23 5RZ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 14 Vale Road is in council tax band B. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
