Overview

About 41a

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

41a is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Southport (PR9 0RT). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 764 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since August 2012. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 71 m² it sits well below the postcode median (117 m² across 34 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2014. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2013–2024, sale prices on this property compounded at 7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £122,000 is 10.9% above the 2024 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£144/sq ft) was about 43.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold November 2024 for £110,000.

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 41a is modelled from its 71 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales 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. 2 sales are recorded for 41a. 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 41a was lodged in March 2016 at band E and expired in March 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 41a. 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.
Council tax band
41a is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
