45a, Bentinck Avenue, Blackpool, FY4 1SB
About 45a
45a is a detached house in Blackpool (FY4 1SB). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 807 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2013) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since February 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £171,000 sits 205.4% above the 1999 sale of £56,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£69/sq ft) was about 48.2% below the postcode norm. At 75 m² it sits well below the postcode median (116 m² across 19 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2005. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
