Overview

About 5 Cobden Road

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

5 Cobden Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Southport (PR9 7TL). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (November 2013) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in March 2010 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Poor to Average; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
