Overview

About 31 Dunbar Crescent

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

31 Dunbar Crescent is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Southport (PR8 3AA). It has a recorded floor area of 173 m² (around 1862 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (March 2014); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £377,000 sits 50.8% above the 2014 sale of £250,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2018. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs). 12 years since the last transfer (June 2014).

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 31 Dunbar Crescent is modelled from its 173 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in PR8 3AA. 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 31 Dunbar Crescent. 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 31 Dunbar Crescent was lodged in July 2014 at band E and expired in July 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 31 Dunbar Crescent. 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 9 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PR8 3AA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
31 Dunbar Crescent is in council tax band E. 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.
