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.

Overview

About 1 Kensington Road

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

1 Kensington Road is a semi-detached house in Southport (PR9 0RT). It has a recorded floor area of 68 m² (around 732 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. At 68 m² this is the 5th smallest of 35 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 41–249 m². The building's EPC ratings span G to C across 35 units on file. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since December 2004 — that's 22 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Today's modelled estimate of £135,000 sits 62.7% above the 2004 sale of £83,000. At 68 m² it sits well below the postcode median (117 m² across 34 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 1 Kensington Road is modelled from its 68 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in PR9 0RT. 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 1 Kensington Road. 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 1 Kensington Road was lodged in February 2016 at band D and expired in February 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 1 Kensington Road. 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 0RT, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
