Overview

About 3 Scott Avenue

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

3 Scott Avenue is a three-bedroom detached house in Simonstone, Burnley, Burnley (BB12 7HY). It has a recorded floor area of 118 m² (around 1270 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in June 2010 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, window efficiency went from Average to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory, a self-contained annexe and outbuildings.

At 118 m² the property is well over the postcode median (82 m² across 8 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). Across 2011–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £395,000 is 45% above the 2015 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£215/sq ft) was about 23.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last changed hands 11 years ago, in April 2015.

How to read this page

Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 3 Scott Avenue is modelled from its 118 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BB12 7HY. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 3 Scott Avenue. 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 3 Scott Avenue was lodged in March 2015 at band E and expired in March 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 3 Scott Avenue. 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 8 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BB12 7HY, not by walking route.
Council tax band
3 Scott Avenue is in council tax band E. 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.
