About 25 Portland Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
25 Portland Road is a semi-detached house in Blackpool (FY1 4ED). It has a recorded floor area of 23 m² (around 248 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. At 23 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 27 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 22–157 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (June 2013) shows a C (score 70). When first surveyed in May 2013 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 96), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from June 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 26 years, with the last transfer in July 2000. 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 £117,000 sits 192.5% above the 2000 sale of £40,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£162/sq ft) was about 82.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 23 m² it sits well below the postcode median (81 m² across 26 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 77% of similar EPCs).

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 25 Portland Road is modelled from its 23 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in FY1 4ED. 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 25 Portland Road. 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 25 Portland Road was lodged in June 2013 at band C and expired in June 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 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 25 Portland Road. 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.
