Overview

About 5 Chelsea Lea

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

5 Chelsea Lea is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Liverpool (L9 8BN). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. At 73 m² this is the largest unit on EPC record across 5 Chelsea Lea (46–73 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. The latest certificate (April 2022) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since June 2011. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Average to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average.

Held since March 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 73 m² the property is well over the postcode median (47 m² across 26 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £100,000 is 31.2% above the 2007 sale price.
