Overview

About 31 Ribchester Road

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

31 Ribchester Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Wilpshire, Blackburn, Blackburn (BB1 9HU). It has a recorded floor area of 96 m² (around 1028 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2012) shows an F (score 36), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 64), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

At 96 m² it's 29.2% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (135 m² median across 23 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2004. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2002–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £247,000 is 22% above the 2021 sale price. Last sale on file: £202,500 in August 2021. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
