Overview

About 5 Barkerfield Close

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

5 Barkerfield Close is a three-bedroom detached house in Higham, Burnley, Burnley (BB12 9BZ). It has a recorded floor area of 121 m² (around 1302 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since October 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 121 m² the property is well over the postcode median (93 m² across 8 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2005–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at -5.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £312,000 is 38.7% above the 2008 sale price. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2018.
