About 8 Bank Hey Lane South
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
8 Bank Hey Lane South is a semi-detached house in Blackburn (BB1 5RQ). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2015) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since December 2006 — that's 20 years off the open market, well above the local norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2021. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £176,000 is 26.6% above the 2006 sale price.

- 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 Bank Hey Lane South. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
