Overview

About 2 Boxwood Drive

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

2 Boxwood Drive is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Blackburn (BB2 5AN). It has a recorded floor area of 60 m² (around 643 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 63). The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in August 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 60 m² it sits well below the postcode median (97 m² across 20 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £189,000 sits 57.5% above the 2009 sale of £120,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£187/sq ft) was about 33.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
