3 Huntsmans Cottages is a four-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Mellor, Blackburn, Blackburn (BB2 7QA). It has a recorded floor area of 182 m² (around 1959 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (April 2025) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in June 2014 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while main heating dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 69). Main heating runs on electricity. Other recorded features include attached land beyond the plot.
Held since October 2000 — that's 26 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £514,000 sits 181.6% above the 2000 sale of £182,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£93/sq ft) was about 60.9% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2013. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 182 m² it's 20.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (151 m² median across 33 EPCs).
