How the estimate is made
The estimate for 31a is modelled from its 71 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in PR9 0EJ. 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.

About 31a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
31a is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Southport (PR9 0EJ). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 764 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. At 71 m² this is the 5th smallest of 10 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 35–195 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 10 units on file. The latest certificate (July 2016) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). The latest certificate is from July 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since January 1995, a hold of 32 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £123,000 sits 284.4% above the 1995 sale of £32,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£42/sq ft) was about 47.1% below the postcode norm.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 31a is modelled from its 71 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in PR9 0EJ. 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 31a. 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 31a was lodged in July 2016 at band D and expired in July 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 31a. 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 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 14 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PR9 0EJ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
