About 4 The Green
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
4 The Green is an end-of-terrace house in Osbaldeston, Blackburn, Blackburn (BB2 7LY). It has a recorded floor area of 268 m² (around 2885 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (November 2013) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). The latest certificate is from November 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since October 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 268 m² the property is well over the postcode median (166 m² across 16 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £685,000 sits 59.3% above the 2007 sale of £430,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£149/sq ft) was about 36.3% below the postcode norm. 6 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 5 refused. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 4 The Green is modelled from its 268 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BB2 7LY. 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 4 The Green. 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 4 The Green was lodged in November 2013 at band D and expired in November 2023, 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 4 The Green. 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 4 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BB2 7LY, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 4 The Green is in council tax band F. 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.
