About 26 Johnston Street

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

26 Johnston Street is a mid-terrace house in Blackburn (BB2 1HD). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 807 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. Earlier certificates rated it C (March 2010); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Average; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
