About 3 Durham Road
3 Durham Road is a five-bedroom detached house in Wilpshire, Blackburn, Blackburn (BB1 9LR). It has a recorded floor area of 132 m² (around 1421 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in July 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 132 m² the property is well over the postcode median (81 m² across 23 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1997–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £406,000 sits 63.1% above the 2007 sale of £249,000.
