8 Durham Road, Blackpool, FY1 3QB
About 8 Durham Road
8 Durham Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Blackpool (FY1 3QB). It has a recorded floor area of 104 m² (around 1119 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (February 2014) shows a C (score 70). When first surveyed in May 2009 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good and roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 86). The latest certificate is from February 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since October 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 72% of similar EPCs). Across 2002–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £110,000 is 31% above the 2009 sale price.
