About 5 Cromer Road
5 Cromer Road is a detached house in Southport (PR8 2NH). It has a recorded floor area of 172 m² (around 1851 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (April 2014) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since April 2014. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 63). The latest certificate is from April 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since October 1998, a hold of 28 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. Today's modelled estimate of £496,000 sits 303.3% above the 1998 sale of £123,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£66/sq ft) was about 64.7% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2004. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
