Overview

About 7 Birch Grove

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

7 Birch Grove is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Prestwich, Manchester, Manchester (M25 3DP). It has a recorded floor area of 102 m² (around 1098 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2019) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in January 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good and window efficiency went from Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since May 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £293,000 sits 117% above the 2009 sale of £135,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£123/sq ft) was about 57.1% below the postcode norm.
