The estimate for 35a is modelled from its 86 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in FY4 1LW. 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 35a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
35a is a semi-detached house in Blackpool (FY4 1LW). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1950-1966. The latest certificate (February 2020) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (February 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump. At 86 m² this is the 27th smallest of 48 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 29–245 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 48 units on file.
Today's modelled estimate of £131,000 sits 92.6% above the 2022 sale of £68,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£73/sq ft) was about 15.2% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 70% of similar EPCs). Most recent transfer: January 2022 at £68,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

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 35a is modelled from its 86 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in FY4 1LW. 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 35a. 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 35a was lodged in February 2020 at band E and is valid until February 2030. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 35a. 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 17 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from FY4 1LW, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
