Overview

About Flat 1

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

Flat 1 is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Blackpool (FY1 6EB). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. At 80 m² this is the largest unit on EPC record across the building (38–80 m²). The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (February 2026) shows a C (score 73). The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since June 2011. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

Held since December 2009 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £104,000 sits 66.4% above the 2009 sale of £62,500.
