15 Barnes Drive, Liverpool, L31 2LN

15 Barnes Drive is a semi-detached house in Liverpool (L31 2LN). It has a recorded floor area of 147 m² (around 1582 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 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 October 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since December 1997 — that's 28 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 147 m² the property is well over the postcode median (87 m² across 10 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £247,000 sits 1388% above the 1997 sale of £16,600. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£10/sq ft) was about 93.4% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2003. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
