About 23 Kingston Avenue
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
23 Kingston Avenue is a six-bedroom detached house in Blackpool (FY4 2QB). It has a recorded floor area of 362 m² (around 3897 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (March 2010); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe and outbuildings.
It hasn't traded since April 2003, a hold of 23 years that's notably long for the area. At 362 m² the property is well over the postcode median (85 m² across 19 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 79% of similar EPCs). 6 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count. Across 1999–2003, sale prices on this property compounded at 32.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £398,000 sits 73% above the 2003 sale of £230,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£59/sq ft) was about 51% below the postcode norm. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2003.

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 23 Kingston Avenue is modelled from its 362 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in FY4 2QB. 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 23 Kingston Avenue. 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 23 Kingston Avenue was lodged in June 2014 at band E and expired in June 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 4 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 23 Kingston Avenue. 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 19 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from FY4 2QB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 23 Kingston Avenue is in council tax band F. 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.
