Overview

About 19 Merchants Quay

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

19 Merchants Quay is a detached house in Blackburn (BB1 1BS). It has a recorded floor area of 102 m² (around 1098 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (August 2013) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since April 1995, a hold of 31 years that's notably long for the area. 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 £242,000 sits 218.4% above the 1995 sale of £75,995. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£69/sq ft) was about 47.9% below the postcode norm. At 102 m² it's 29.1% larger than the typical home in the postcode (79 m² median across 9 EPCs).
