About 5 Bargee Close
5 Bargee Close is a semi-detached house in Blackburn (BB1 1BW). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (December 2014) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since August 1997 — that's 29 years off the open market, well above the local norm. 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 £142,000 sits 246.3% above the 1997 sale of £41,000. At 77 m² it sits well below the postcode median (110 m² across 9 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
