Overview

About Lower Warble Hey

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

Lower Warble Hey is a detached house in Mellor, Blackburn, Blackburn (BB2 7ED). It has a recorded floor area of 368 m² (around 3961 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in November 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 368 m² the property is well over the postcode median (119 m² across 30 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £563,000 sits 73.2% above the 2007 sale of £325,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£82/sq ft) was about 52.3% below the postcode norm. 6 planning records sit against the property, 5 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, a porch and tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

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 Lower Warble Hey is modelled from its 368 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BB2 7ED. 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 Lower Warble Hey. 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 Lower Warble Hey was lodged in September 2014 at band E and expired in September 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 6 applications are matched to Lower Warble Hey. 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 25 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BB2 7ED, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Lower Warble Hey 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.
