About 3 Orchard Hey
3 Orchard Hey is a detached house in Liverpool (L31 3EU). It has a recorded floor area of 166 m² (around 1787 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2015) shows a C (score 74). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 85). The latest certificate is from October 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in December 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 166 m² the property is well over the postcode median (99 m² across 16 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 88% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £378,000 sits 116% above the 2007 sale of £175,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£98/sq ft) was about 55.9% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2008. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
