3 Cranbrook Avenue, Bispham, Blackpool, FY2 0BZ

3 Cranbrook Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Bispham, Blackpool, Blackpool (FY2 0BZ). It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 775 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in January 2013 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Very Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

It hasn't traded since May 2001, a hold of 25 years that's notably long for the area. Today's modelled estimate of £144,000 sits 176.9% above the 2001 sale of £52,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£67/sq ft) was about 48.8% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2020. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
