About 2 Waterfront
2 Waterfront is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Blackburn (BB1 1EE). It has a recorded floor area of 41 m² (around 441 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band A. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (October 2021) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since February 2014. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and main heating dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). Main heating runs on electricity. At 41 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 9 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 39–49 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 9 units on file.
Held since April 1995 — that's 31 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 £112,000 sits 244.7% above the 1995 sale of £32,495.
