Overview

About 5 Forton Lodge Flats

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

5 Forton Lodge Flats is a two-bedroom detached house in Liverpool (L23 8SA). It has a recorded floor area of 115 m² (around 1238 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2009) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from February 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 115 m² it's 29.2% larger than the typical home in the postcode (89 m² median across 13 EPCs). Last sold in June 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
