Overview

About 17 Wensley Avenue

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

17 Wensley Avenue is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Liverpool (L26 0SU). It has a recorded floor area of 60 m² (around 646 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2023) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (March 2019); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump.
