Overview

About 105 Preston New Road

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

105 Preston New Road is a six-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Blackburn (BB2 6BJ). It has a recorded floor area of 244 m² (around 2626 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (August 2014) shows an F (score 23), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at F across 4 certificates since December 2013. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 73), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a basement.

Held since October 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 244 m² the property is well over the postcode median (52 m² across 23 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. 6 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £224,000 sits 79.2% above the 2009 sale of £125,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£48/sq ft) was about 38% below the postcode norm.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 105 Preston New Road is modelled from its 244 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BB2 6BJ. 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 105 Preston New Road. 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 105 Preston New Road was lodged in August 2014 at band F and expired in August 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 4 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 105 Preston New Road. 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 42 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BB2 6BJ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
105 Preston New Road is in council tax band B. 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.
