How the estimate is made
The estimate for 1 Argyll Road is modelled from its 63 m² EPC floor area, the absence of a recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in FY2 9TG. 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.

About 1 Argyll Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
1 Argyll Road is a semi-detached house in Blackpool (FY2 9TG). It has a recorded floor area of 63 m² (around 678 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in March 2014 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Average, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 63 m² this is the 4th smallest of 24 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 53–163 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 24 units on file.
At 63 m² it sits well below the postcode median (123 m² across 23 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2003. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

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 1 Argyll Road is modelled from its 63 m² EPC floor area, the absence of a recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in FY2 9TG. 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. No sale is recorded for 1 Argyll Road, which usually means it hasn't changed hands since 1995 or the sale was not for value. 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 1 Argyll Road was lodged in March 2014 at band D and expired in March 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 1 Argyll 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 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 20 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from FY2 9TG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 1 Argyll 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.
