Get started4 Gorse Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Blackburn (BB2 6LY). It has a recorded floor area of 130 m² (around 1404 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (December 2009) shows an F (score 34), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 55), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since July 2010 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm.
