Overview

About 17a

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

17a is a five-bedroom detached house in Ainsdale, Southport, Southport (PR8 2PU). It has a recorded floor area of 363 m² (around 3907 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (March 2016) returns a high B (score 85), putting the home a stone's throw from an A rating. When first surveyed in October 2008 the rating was G, the property has climbed 5 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Very Good, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good and window efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good. The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a basement.

At 363 m² it's 23.3% larger than the typical home in the postcode (295 m² median across 10 EPCs). Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 80% of similar EPCs). Last sold in May 2018, so it's been off the market for around 8 years. Across 2012–2018, sale prices on this property compounded at 0.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £846,000 is 41.6% above the 2018 sale price.
