Overview

About 6 Pier House

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

6 Pier House is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Blackburn (BB1 1BH). It has a recorded floor area of 42 m² (around 452 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band A. At 42 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (42–56 m²). The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the top. Other recorded features include a balcony. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 3 certificates since February 2014. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Average to Good and window efficiency went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 83). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £106,000 sits 101.9% above the 2017 sale of £52,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£116/sq ft) was about 31% above the typical sold price in the postcode. On the market in January 2017 and unlisted since — roughly 9 years.
