About 18 Douglas Place
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
18 Douglas Place is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Blackburn (BB1 9SW). It has a recorded floor area of 108 m² (around 1165 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (January 2009) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The latest certificate is from January 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since May 2000, a hold of 26 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 108 m² the property is well over the postcode median (77 m² across 58 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £138,000 sits 273.5% above the 2000 sale of £36,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£32/sq ft) was about 56.2% below the postcode norm.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 18 Douglas Place is modelled from its 108 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BB1 9SW. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 18 Douglas Place. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 18 Douglas Place was lodged in January 2009 at band D and expired in January 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 18 Douglas Place. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 24 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BB1 9SW, not by walking route.
- Council tax band
- 18 Douglas Place is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
