Overview

About 7 Highbank

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

7 Highbank is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Blackburn (BB1 9SX). It has a recorded floor area of 57 m² (around 614 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (December 2021) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in May 2013 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.

It hasn't traded since February 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £122,000 is 35.6% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£147/sq ft) was about 16.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
