About 19 Markham Road
19 Markham Road is a mid-terrace house in Blackburn (BB2 2SX). It has a recorded floor area of 82 m² (around 883 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since November 2014. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since June 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. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 70% of similar EPCs). Across 2000–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 20.8% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£138/sq ft) was about 30.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
