About 1 Brunel Drive
1 Brunel Drive is a detached house in Blackburn (BB1 1BD). It has a recorded floor area of 49 m² (around 531 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band A. At 49 m² this is the 8th smallest of 22 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 47–129 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (January 2010) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 81). The latest certificate is from January 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since October 2010 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Today's modelled estimate of £105,000 sits 337.5% above the 2010 sale of £24,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£45/sq ft) was about 36% below the postcode norm. At 49 m² it sits well below the postcode median (72 m² across 21 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2014.
