How the estimate is made
The estimate for 16 Gorton Street is modelled from its 82 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in FY1 3HP. 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 16 Gorton Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
16 Gorton Street is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Blackpool (FY1 3HP). It has a recorded floor area of 82 m² (around 883 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (February 2014) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 4 certificates since May 2009. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Poor to Very Good, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.
Across 2010–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 1.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £99,000 is 23.8% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£91/sq ft) was about 41.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold December 2021 for £80,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

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 16 Gorton Street is modelled from its 82 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in FY1 3HP. 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 16 Gorton Street. 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 16 Gorton Street was lodged in February 2014 at band D and expired in February 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 4 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 16 Gorton Street. 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 22 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from FY1 3HP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 16 Gorton Street is in council tax band A. 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.
