About 2 4
2 4 is a mid-terrace house in Burnley (BB12 0DF). It has a recorded floor area of 57 m² (around 614 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (May 2024) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 5 certificates since May 2011. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Average to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 89), a 2-band jump.
It hasn't traded since June 2007, a hold of 19 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. Across 1997–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 24.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £114,000 sits 115.1% above the 2007 sale of £53,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£86/sq ft) was about 88.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 57 m² it's 17.4% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (69 m² median across 37 EPCs). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2012.
