About Oakfield
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Oakfield is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Pleasington, Blackburn, Blackburn (BB2 6QY). It has a recorded floor area of 226 m² (around 2433 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. There is a swimming pool on the plot, uncommon for the area. Other recorded features include attached land beyond the plot and a basement. The latest certificate (August 2014) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in May 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Average and main heating went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 226 m² the property is well over the postcode median (125 m² across 3 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2000–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.2% per year. Last sale on file: £655,000 in August 2022. 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 Oakfield is modelled from its 226 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BB2 6QY. 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. 3 sales are recorded for Oakfield. 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 Oakfield was lodged in August 2014 at band E and expired in August 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 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 Oakfield. 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 22 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BB2 6QY, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Oakfield is in council tax band E. 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.
