Overview

About 3 Beardwood Brow

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

3 Beardwood Brow is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Blackburn (BB2 7AX). It has a recorded floor area of 129 m² (around 1389 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2014) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in September 2013 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 69), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 20 years, with the last transfer in December 2006. Today's modelled estimate of £272,000 sits 59.1% above the 2006 sale of £171,000. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs).

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 3 Beardwood Brow is modelled from its 129 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BB2 7AX. 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 3 Beardwood Brow. 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 Beardwood Brow was lodged in May 2014 at band E and expired in May 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 3 Beardwood Brow. 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 36 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BB2 7AX, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
3 Beardwood Brow 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.
