Overview

About 8 Briar Road

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

8 Briar Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Blackburn (BB1 9TF). It has a recorded floor area of 68 m² (around 732 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (June 2022) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since December 2004, a hold of 21 years that's notably long for the area. Today's modelled estimate of £137,000 sits 82.7% above the 2004 sale of £75,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£102/sq ft) was about 15.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2022. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 87% of similar EPCs).
