123 Highcroft Avenue, Bispham, Blackpool, FY2 0BP

123 Highcroft Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Bispham, Blackpool, Blackpool (FY2 0BP). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 893 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (October 2015) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Held since January 2007 — that's 20 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 83 m² it's 22.1% larger than the typical home in the postcode (68 m² median across 7 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2022. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £152,000 is 22.1% above the 2007 sale price.
