About 48 50
48 50 is a mid-terrace house in Blackburn (BB2 1HG). It has a recorded floor area of 206 m² (around 2217 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 73), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since October 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time.
