About Alder Heights
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Alder Heights is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Stockport (SK1 4AG). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 667 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band B. At 62 m² this is the 8th smallest of 14 units on EPC record in Alder Heights, where floor areas span 58–71 m². The building's EPC ratings span C to B, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (May 2026) shows a C (score 80), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 3 certificates since January 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in May 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2004–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £171,000 is 22.2% above the 2007 sale price.
