Overview

About 5 Hope Street

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

5 Hope Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Blackburn (BB2 1DY). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (August 2017) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since June 2013. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and window efficiency went from Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump.

Held since January 2007 — that's 19 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. Today's modelled estimate of £111,000 sits 82% above the 2007 sale of £61,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£71/sq ft) was about 15.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
