Overview

About 21a

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

21a is a detached house in Southport (PR8 2AU). It has a recorded floor area of 102 m² (around 1098 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. At 102 m² this is the largest unit on EPC record across 21a (51–102 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to D, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (53 versus a best of 59). The latest certificate (September 2013) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since March 2009. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good, window efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 102 m² it sits well below the postcode median (153 m² across 38 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
