Overview

About 12 Oxford Drive

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

12 Oxford Drive is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Blackburn (BB1 2DW). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 990 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2013) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (October 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Average; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Today's modelled estimate of £189,000 sits 52.4% above the 2014 sale of £124,000. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 76% of similar EPCs). Last sold in February 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
