Overview

About 2 Copster Cottages

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

2 Copster Cottages is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Mellor, Blackburn, Blackburn (BB2 7QB). It has a recorded floor area of 146 m² (around 1574 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (June 2009) shows an F (score 24), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from June 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 2 Copster Cottages is modelled from its 146 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BB2 7QB. 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 2 Copster Cottages. 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 2 Copster Cottages was lodged in June 2009 at band F and expired in June 2019, 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. 1 application is matched to 2 Copster Cottages. 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 2 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BB2 7QB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
