About 28 30
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
28 30 is an end-of-terrace house in Blackburn (BB2 1NU). It has a recorded floor area of 33 m² (around 355 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (February 2015); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since June 1998 — that's 28 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £118,000 sits 321.4% above the 1998 sale of £28,000. 4 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 1 refused. At 33 m² it's 21.4% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (42 m² median across 17 EPCs).

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 28 30 is modelled from its 33 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BB2 1NU. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 28 30. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 28 30 was lodged in June 2015 at band D and expired in June 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 4 applications are matched to 28 30. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 46 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BB2 1NU, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
