Overview

About 27 Colenso Road

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

27 Colenso Road is a semi-detached house in Blackburn (BB1 8DR). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (December 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
