About 3 The Mount
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
3 The Mount is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Blackburn (BB2 6EX). It has a recorded floor area of 186 m² (around 2002 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows an F (score 36), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it E (July 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 67), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a basement.
2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

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 3 The Mount is modelled from its 186 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BB2 6EX. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 3 The Mount. 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 3 The Mount was lodged in March 2015 at band F and expired in March 2025, 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. 2 applications are matched to 3 The Mount. 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 39 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BB2 6EX, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 3 The Mount is in council tax band D. 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.
