About Brooklea

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

Brooklea is a semi-detached house in Osbaldeston, Blackburn, Blackburn (BB2 7HX). It has a recorded floor area of 113 m² (around 1216 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows an E (score 46), 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 Very Poor to Good, lighting went from Average to Very Good and main heating went from Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average and window efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
