About 17 Essex Road
17 Essex Road is an end-of-terrace house in Stockport (SK5 8EA). It has a recorded floor area of 69 m² (around 743 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (October 2013) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since November 1995 — that's 31 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £155,000 sits 761.1% above the 1995 sale of £18,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£24/sq ft) was about 75% below the postcode norm. At 69 m² it's 16.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (83 m² median across 31 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 84% of similar EPCs).
