Overview

About 7 Blenheim Close

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

7 Blenheim Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Blackburn (BB1 8QL). It has a recorded floor area of 69 m² (around 743 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2013) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since October 2011. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Today's modelled estimate of £196,000 sits 56.8% above the 2012 sale of £125,000. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. On the market in March 2012 and unlisted since — roughly 14 years. At 69 m² it's 29.6% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (98 m² median across 13 EPCs).
