2 Gloucester Road, Southport, PR8 2AU
About 2 Gloucester Road
2 Gloucester Road is a six-bedroom detached house in Southport (PR8 2AU). It has a recorded floor area of 470 m² (around 5059 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (January 2014) shows an F (score 27), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 470 m² the property is well over the postcode median (145 m² across 38 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. 6 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count. 6 planning records sit against the property, 6 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include tree works and an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. Today's modelled estimate of £1,088,000 is 17.6% above the 2022 sale price. Most recent transfer: July 2022 at £925,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
