Overview

About 13a

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

13a is a semi-detached house in Southport (PR9 0RT). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 807 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in February 2010 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). The latest certificate is from January 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
