About 3 London Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
3 London Road is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Blackburn (BB1 7HA). It has a recorded floor area of 193 m² (around 2077 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 4 certificates since May 2014. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a loft.
At 193 m² the property is well over the postcode median (133 m² across 36 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £234,000 sits 56% above the 2018 sale of £150,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£72/sq ft) was about 27.3% below the postcode norm. Last changed hands 8 years ago, in March 2018.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 3 London Road is modelled from its 193 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BB1 7HA. 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 3 London Road. 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 3 London Road was lodged in May 2016 at band E and expired in May 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 4 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 3 London Road. 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 42 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BB1 7HA, not by walking route.
- Council tax band
- 3 London Road is in council tax band B. 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.
