About Oakfield
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.
