About 18 Kensington Road
18 Kensington Road is a six-bedroom semi-detached house in Southport (PR9 0RT). It has a recorded floor area of 249 m² (around 2677 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2008) shows an F (score 29), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 48). The latest certificate is from November 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since September 2010, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. At 249 m² the property is well over the postcode median (117 m² across 34 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £300,000 sits 76.5% above the 2010 sale of £170,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£64/sq ft) was about 36.5% below the postcode norm.
