7 Somerset Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Wilpshire, Blackburn, Blackburn (BB1 9JD). It has a recorded floor area of 124 m² (around 1335 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 2-band jump.
