1 Lower Mead Drive, Burnley, BB12 0ED
About 1 Lower Mead Drive
1 Lower Mead Drive is a five-bedroom detached house in Burnley (BB12 0ED). It has a recorded floor area of 130 m² (around 1404 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2012) shows a C (score 72). The latest certificate is from January 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since July 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. At 130 m² the property is well over the postcode median (83 m² across 36 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 78% of similar EPCs). 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £290,000 is 26.1% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£164/sq ft) was about 26.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
