Overview

About 16 Brownhill Road

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

16 Brownhill Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Blackburn (BB1 9QX). It has a recorded floor area of 64 m² (around 689 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (May 2026) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since November 2011. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average and window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in October 2007. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1997–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 15.1% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£181/sq ft) was about 68.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 64 m² it's 20% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (80 m² median across 49 EPCs).
