About 846 Whalley New Road
846 Whalley New Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Blackburn (BB1 9BD). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 667 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2013) 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 June 2010. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and lighting dropped from Very Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 62 m² it sits well below the postcode median (92 m² across 22 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £178,000 is 13.4% above the 2022 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£235/sq ft) was about 125.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold February 2022 for £157,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
