Overview

About 9 Merchants Landing

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

9 Merchants Landing is a semi-detached house in Blackburn (BB1 1BU). It has a recorded floor area of 63 m² (around 678 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2014) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 5 certificates since June 2013.

The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
