Overview

About 72 Brownhill Road

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

72 Brownhill Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Blackburn (BB1 9QY). It has a recorded floor area of 135 m² (around 1448 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (January 2011) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since March 2010. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Average to Poor. The latest certificate is from January 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

At 135 m² the property is well over the postcode median (81 m² across 36 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs). Across 1998–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £236,000 sits 62.8% above the 2016 sale of £145,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£100/sq ft) was about 37.8% below the postcode norm. 10 years since the last transfer (November 2016). Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2002. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
