How the estimate is made
The estimate for 4 Bishopstone Close is modelled from its 88 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BB2 3WD. 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.

About 4 Bishopstone Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
4 Bishopstone Close is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Blackburn (BB2 3WD). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 947 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include attached land beyond the plot. The latest certificate (December 2013) shows a C (score 80), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since January 2013. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Very Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 90). The latest certificate is from December 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Today's modelled estimate of £123,000 is 17.1% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£111/sq ft) was about 39.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sale on file: £105,000 in July 2021. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

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 4 Bishopstone Close is modelled from its 88 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BB2 3WD. 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 4 Bishopstone Close. 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 4 Bishopstone Close was lodged in December 2013 at band C and expired in December 2023, 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. None is matched to 4 Bishopstone Close. 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 36 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BB2 3WD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 4 Bishopstone Close is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
