Overview

About 15 Devon Road

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

15 Devon Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Blackburn (BB1 3LA). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 797 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in August 2014 the rating was G, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 2015–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 56.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £154,000 sits 85.5% above the 2016 sale of £83,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£104/sq ft) was about 25.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in January 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years. One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2018.
