Overview

About 5 Croasdale Square

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

5 Croasdale Square is a mid-terrace house in Blackburn (BB1 1SY). It has a recorded floor area of 87 m² (around 936 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows a C (score 71). The rating has held steady at C across 6 certificates since June 2014. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since October 2004 — that's 22 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Today's modelled estimate of £126,000 sits 58.5% above the 2004 sale of £79,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£85/sq ft) was about 40.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2012. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 87 m² it's 16.3% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (104 m² median across 23 EPCs).

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 5 Croasdale Square is modelled from its 87 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BB1 1SY. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 5 Croasdale Square. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 5 Croasdale Square was lodged in May 2016 at band C and expired in May 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 6 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 5 Croasdale Square. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 43 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BB1 1SY, not by walking route.
Council tax band
5 Croasdale Square is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
