Overview

About 389 Whalley New Road

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

389 Whalley New Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Blackburn (BB1 9SP). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 3 certificates since June 2013. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Last sale on file: £113,000 in August 2021. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. Across 1999–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £143,000 is 26.5% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£135/sq ft) was about 82.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
