About 7 Lindley Street
7 Lindley Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Blackburn (BB2 2RJ). It has a recorded floor area of 68 m² (around 732 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (February 2015) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since October 2008. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in September 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2001–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 17.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £103,000 is 28.8% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£109/sq ft) was about 51.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
