About 3 Portland Road

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

3 Portland Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Blackpool (FY1 4ED). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A.

Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump.
