About 20 Higginson Road
20 Higginson Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Stockport (SK5 6BG). It has a recorded floor area of 57 m² (around 614 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (July 2021) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in January 2010 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump.
It hasn't traded since August 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £210,000 sits 81% above the 2007 sale of £116,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£189/sq ft) was about 15.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
