About 26 Cairo Street
26 Cairo Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Warrington (WA1 1EH). It has a recorded floor area of 45 m² (around 484 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. At 45 m² this is the 11th smallest of 15 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 17–95 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the bottom. Other recorded features include a conservatory and outbuildings. The latest certificate (October 2025) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since July 2015. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76).
It hasn't traded since November 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. At 45 m² the property is well over the postcode median (34 m² across 14 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £157,000 is 11.3% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£291/sq ft) was about 106.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2014.
