828a, Whalley New Road, Blackburn, BB1 9BD
About 828a
828a is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Blackburn (BB1 9BD). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 841 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2010) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in November 2008 the rating was G, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good. The latest certificate is from June 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since February 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. Today's modelled estimate of £174,000 sits 123.1% above the 2009 sale of £78,000.
