178 Southport Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Scarisbrick, Southport, Southport (PR8 5JG). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1008 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2012) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 66).
