Overview

About 20 Longton Road

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

20 Longton Road is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Blackpool (FY1 4HW). It has a recorded floor area of 135 m² (around 1453 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2025) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in June 2022 the rating was G, the property has climbed 4 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good and window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

Today's modelled estimate of £188,000 sits 56.7% above the 2022 sale of £120,000. At 135 m² it's 26.7% larger than the typical home in the postcode (107 m² median across 44 EPCs). Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 75% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2023. Most recent transfer: October 2022 at £120,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
