Overview

About 24 Fountains Avenue

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

24 Fountains Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Blackburn (BB1 5RX). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (September 2015) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since May 2015. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). The latest certificate is from September 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since June 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2003–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 38.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £120,000 sits 60% above the 2009 sale of £75,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£81/sq ft) was about 85.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
