Overview

About Alpha

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

Alpha is a four-bedroom detached house in Osbaldeston, Blackburn, Blackburn (BB2 7JB). It has a recorded floor area of 152 m² (around 1636 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include attached land beyond the plot.

At 152 m² the property is well over the postcode median (111 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2015. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last changed hands 12 years ago, in December 2014. Today's modelled estimate of £440,000 is 25.7% above the 2014 sale price.
