8 Ferndale, Blackburn, BB1 5HH
About 8 Ferndale
8 Ferndale is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Blackburn (BB1 5HH). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 696 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2009) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). The latest certificate is from May 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
Held since October 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2004–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £143,000 is 32.4% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£155/sq ft) was about 142.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
