About 23 Whalley Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
23 Whalley Street is a mid-terrace house in Blackburn (BB1 7NB). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 667 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (October 2013) shows an F (score 24), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 90), a 4-band jump. Main heating runs on to be used only when there is no heating/hot. The latest certificate is from October 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since October 2006 — that's 20 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Across 1999–2006, sale prices on this property compounded at 16.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £116,000 sits 54.7% above the 2006 sale of £75,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£112/sq ft) was about 109.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 62 m² it's 28.7% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (87 m² median across 17 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs).

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 23 Whalley Street is modelled from its 62 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BB1 7NB. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 23 Whalley Street. 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 23 Whalley Street was lodged in October 2013 at band F and expired in October 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let.

- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 41 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BB1 7NB, not by walking route.
- Council tax band
- 23 Whalley Street is in council tax band A. 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.
