About Flat 3
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Flat 3 is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Southport (PR9 7EG). It has a recorded floor area of 66 m² (around 710 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1976-1982. At 66 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 3 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 64–66 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (68 versus a best of 79). The latest certificate (June 2014) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 66 m² it sits well below the postcode median (246 m² across 24 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 71% of similar EPCs). Across 1999–2017, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £127,000 is 13.4% above the 2017 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£158/sq ft) was about 31.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 9 years since the last transfer (December 2017).

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 Flat 3 is modelled from its 66 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PR9 7EG. 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. 3 sales are recorded for Flat 3. 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 Flat 3 was lodged in June 2014 at band D and expired in June 2024, 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 Flat 3. 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 15 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PR9 7EG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
