Overview

About 23 Whalley Road

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

23 Whalley Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Read, Burnley, Burnley (BB12 7PB). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1012 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (June 2009) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The latest certificate is from June 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a basement.

Held since November 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Across 1996–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £166,000 is 25.8% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£130/sq ft) was about 18.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
