About 18 St Bedes Avenue

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

18 St Bedes Avenue is a five-bedroom semi-detached house in Blackpool (FY4 1AQ). It has a recorded floor area of 176 m² (around 1894 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A.

Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good.
