Overview

About 8 Grasmere Close

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

8 Grasmere Close is a three-bedroom detached house in Rishton, Blackburn, Blackburn (BB1 4EL). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 807 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (December 2011) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 69). The latest certificate is from December 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a corner plot.

Held since July 2006 — that's 20 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Today's modelled estimate of £245,000 is 48.5% above the 2006 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£205/sq ft) was about 30.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 75 m² it's 20% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (94 m² median across 18 EPCs). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2011.

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 8 Grasmere Close is modelled from its 75 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BB1 4EL. 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 8 Grasmere Close. 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 8 Grasmere Close was lodged in December 2011 at band D and expired in December 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 8 Grasmere Close. 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 17 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BB1 4EL, not by walking route.
Council tax band
8 Grasmere Close is in council tax band D. 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.
