Overview

About 2 Abbott Brow

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

2 Abbott Brow is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Mellor, Blackburn, Blackburn (BB2 7HU). It has a recorded floor area of 90 m² (around 971 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

It hasn't traded since September 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £232,000 sits 56.8% above the 2009 sale of £148,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£152/sq ft) was about 26.6% below the postcode norm. At 90 m² it sits well below the postcode median (144 m² across 6 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 2 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count.

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 2 Abbott Brow is modelled from its 90 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BB2 7HU. 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 2 Abbott 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 2 Abbott Brow was lodged in October 2008 at band D and expired in October 2018, 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. None is matched to 2 Abbott 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 7 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BB2 7HU, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
2 Abbott 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.
