About 1b
1b is a four-bedroom detached house in Southport (PR8 2DY). It has a recorded floor area of 184 m² (around 1981 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (February 2014) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
Today's modelled estimate of £461,000 sits 88.9% above the 2014 sale of £244,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£123/sq ft) was about 62.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
