How the estimate is made
The estimate for 137 139 is modelled from its 52 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in FY4 1HG. 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 137 139
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
137 139 is a mid-terrace house in Blackpool (FY4 1HG). It has a recorded floor area of 52 m² (around 560 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 52 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 4 units on EPC record in 137 139, where floor areas span 46–66 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (52 versus a best of 75). The latest certificate (August 2025) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (July 2011); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and lighting went from Very Poor to Average; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.
Across 1999–2019, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £114,000 is 17.1% below the 2019 sale of £137,500, a rare downward gap that often correlates with deferred maintenance or unfinished works. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include subdivision, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). Last sale on file: £137,500 in July 2019.

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 137 139 is modelled from its 52 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in FY4 1HG. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 137 139. 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 137 139 was lodged in August 2025 at band E and is valid until August 2035. 6 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 2 applications are matched to 137 139. 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 18 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from FY4 1HG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 137 139 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.
