Overview

About Balderstone Grange

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

Balderstone Grange is a detached house in Balderstone, Blackburn, Blackburn (BB2 7LW). It has a recorded floor area of 920 m² (around 9903 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band H. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in January 2014 the rating was G, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Poor to Very Good and window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 56). Main heating runs on bulk wood pellets. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
