Sibaya is a four-bedroom detached house in Ramsgreave, Blackburn, Blackburn (BB1 9DJ). It has a recorded floor area of 211 m² (around 2271 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (September 2024) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in July 2012 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 89), a 2-band jump. Other recorded features include notable views and attached land beyond the plot.
Held since May 1998 — that's 28 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 211 m² the property is well over the postcode median (134 m² across 8 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £526,000 sits 228.8% above the 1998 sale of £160,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£70/sq ft) was about 61.3% below the postcode norm.
Sibaya's carbon output runs well above what efficient homes in the postcode produce.
