About 17 Beresford Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
17 Beresford Road is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Blackburn (BB1 8BG). It has a recorded floor area of 108 m² (around 1163 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (April 2014) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (June 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72). The latest certificate is from April 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a loft.
Held since November 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 108 m² it's 17.4% larger than the typical home in the postcode (92 m² median across 25 EPCs). Across 2006–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £125,000 is 17.9% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£91/sq ft) was about 89.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

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 17 Beresford Road is modelled from its 108 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BB1 8BG. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 17 Beresford 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 17 Beresford Road was lodged in April 2014 at band D and expired in April 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 4 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.

- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 17 Beresford 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 38 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BB1 8BG, not by walking route.
- Council tax band
- 17 Beresford Road 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.
