About 5 Altham Road
5 Altham Road is a two-bedroom detached house in Southport (PR8 6XL). It has a recorded floor area of 63 m² (around 679 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 71). The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since January 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 63 m² it's 29.5% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (90 m² median across 10 EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £208,000 is 48.6% above the 2009 sale price.
