About 157 Lytham Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
157 Lytham Road is a mid-terrace house in Blackpool (FY1 6DL). It has a recorded floor area of 31 m² (around 334 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 31 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 15 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 27–125 m². The building's EPC ratings span G to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (February 2018) shows a C (score 70). When first surveyed in December 2011 the rating was F, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and main heating went from Very Poor to Good.
Across 2000–2018, sale prices on this property compounded at 14.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £112,000 is 50.3% below the 2018 sale of £225,500, below the original sale price, which typically signals condition or completion-status changes worth verifying. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£676/sq ft) was about 1020.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 31 m² it sits well below the postcode median (56 m² across 14 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Last sold in April 2018, so it's been off the market for around 8 years. Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property.

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 157 Lytham Road is modelled from its 31 m² EPC floor area, its 5 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in FY1 6DL. 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. 5 sales are recorded for 157 Lytham 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 157 Lytham Road was lodged in February 2018 at band C and is valid until February 2028. 3 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 157 Lytham 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. The 21 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from FY1 6DL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 157 Lytham Road 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.
