Flat 3, 33 Bold Street, Southport, PR9 0ED

Flat 3 is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Southport (PR9 0ED). It has a recorded floor area of 70 m² (around 753 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 70 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 3 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 62–110 m². On EPC score it ranks first in the building (77 versus a worst of 72). The latest certificate (October 2025) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 3 certificates since April 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good.

Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in June 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 70 m² the property is well over the postcode median (44 m² across 59 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£215/sq ft) was about 22.5% below the postcode norm.
