How the estimate is made
The estimate for 87 Waterloo Road is modelled from its 53 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in FY4 1AD. 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 87 Waterloo Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
87 Waterloo Road is a mid-terrace house in Blackpool (FY4 1AD). It has a recorded floor area of 53 m² (around 566 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (March 2009) shows a G (score 1), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to F (score 26). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from March 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 53 m² this is the 5th smallest of 14 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 40–240 m². The building's EPC ratings span G to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (1 versus a best of 69).
At 53 m² it sits well below the postcode median (111 m² across 13 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Today's modelled estimate of £118,000 is 38.8% above the 2017 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£150/sq ft) was about 32.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last changed hands 9 years ago, in November 2017. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2007.

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 87 Waterloo Road is modelled from its 53 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in FY4 1AD. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 87 Waterloo 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 87 Waterloo Road was lodged in March 2009 at band G and expired in March 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 87 Waterloo 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 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 20 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from FY4 1AD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 87 Waterloo 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.
