The estimate for Flat 3 is modelled from its 81 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PR8 1HP. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.

Flat 3 is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Southport (PR8 1HP). It has a recorded floor area of 81 m² (around 872 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. Tenure is freehold. At 81 m² this is the 4th smallest of 5 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 41–87 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (January 2023) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in September 2011 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and window efficiency went from Poor to Average.
It hasn't traded since November 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 81 m² the property is well over the postcode median (57 m² across 49 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1999–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 15.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £129,000 is 13.2% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£131/sq ft) was about 35.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
