70b, Sandon Road, Southport, PR8 4QD
About 70b
70b is a mid-terrace house in Southport (PR8 4QD). It has a recorded floor area of 57 m² (around 614 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. At 57 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 13 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 53–119 m². The building's EPC ratings span G to C across 13 units on file. The latest certificate (January 2013) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since January 2013. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). The latest certificate is from January 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since March 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 57 m² it sits well below the postcode median (96 m² across 12 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£279/sq ft) was about 75.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
