Overview

About 3 Broadfold Avenue

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

3 Broadfold Avenue is a semi-detached house in Blackburn (BB1 5PS). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 947 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 3 certificates since September 2014. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good and roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in March 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2001–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £127,000 sits 111.7% above the 2007 sale of £60,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£63/sq ft) was about 71.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 78% of similar EPCs).
