Overview

About 28 Sabden Road

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

28 Sabden Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Higham, Burnley, Burnley (BB12 9BL). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 700 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 65 m² it sits well below the postcode median (130 m² across 17 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in June 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years. Today's modelled estimate of £233,000 is 30.9% above the 2015 sale price.
