How the estimate is made
The estimate for 2 Geldof Drive is modelled from its 85 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in FY1 2AQ. 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.

About 2 Geldof Drive
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
2 Geldof Drive is a two-bedroom detached house in Blackpool (FY1 2AQ). It has a recorded floor area of 85 m² (around 917 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2009) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The latest certificate is from March 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since August 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2007–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 0.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £177,000 is 12.4% above the 2009 sale price.

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 2 Geldof Drive is modelled from its 85 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in FY1 2AQ. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 2 Geldof Drive. 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 Geldof Drive was lodged in March 2009 at band D and expired in March 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. None is matched to 2 Geldof Drive. 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 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 19 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from FY1 2AQ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 2 Geldof Drive is in council tax band C. 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.
