About 1 Cromer Place
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
1 Cromer Place is a four-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Blackburn (BB1 8EL). It has a recorded floor area of 183 m² (around 1970 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since February 2013. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
At 183 m² the property is well over the postcode median (98 m² across 10 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £240,000 is 36.4% above the 2019 sale price. Most recent transfer: August 2019 at £176,000. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2011.

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 1 Cromer Place is modelled from its 183 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BB1 8EL. 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 1 Cromer Place. 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 1 Cromer Place was lodged in November 2014 at band D and expired in November 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 1 Cromer Place. 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 39 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BB1 8EL, not by walking route.
- Council tax band
- 1 Cromer Place 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.
