About Suncourt
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Suncourt is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Southport (PR8 2BP). It has a recorded floor area of 141 m² (around 1518 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band G. At 141 m² this is the 7th smallest of 12 units on EPC record in Suncourt, where floor areas span 94–185 m². The building's EPC ratings span C to B, with this unit at the bottom. Other recorded features include a conservatory. The latest certificate (December 2020) shows a C (score 74).
It hasn't traded since September 1997, a hold of 29 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 141 m² the property is well over the postcode median (102 m² across 32 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £337,000 sits 104.2% above the 1997 sale of £165,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£109/sq ft) was about 41.5% below the postcode norm.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for Suncourt is modelled from its 141 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in PR8 2BP. 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.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for Suncourt. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for Suncourt was lodged in December 2020 at band C and is valid until December 2030. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Suncourt. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 12 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PR8 2BP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Suncourt is in council tax band G. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
