About 12 Birkdale Road
12 Birkdale Road is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Stockport (SK5 7LU). It has a recorded floor area of 142 m² (around 1528 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2016) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since January 2010.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in October 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.
