About 10 St Johns Close
10 St Johns Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Read, Burnley, Burnley (BB12 7RL). It has a recorded floor area of 85 m² (around 917 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2009) shows an F (score 31), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 48). The latest certificate is from June 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since September 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. At 85 m² it sits well below the postcode median (124 m² across 7 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2010. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £365,000 is 35.2% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£294/sq ft) was about 77.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
