Overview

About 3 Dorset Street

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

3 Dorset Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Blackpool (FY4 3BB). It has a recorded floor area of 63 m² (around 678 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (November 2013) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in July 2013 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, lighting went from Very Poor to Average and main heating went from Very Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 89), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

Today's modelled estimate of £104,000 sits 121.3% above the 2013 sale of £47,000. Last changed hands 13 years ago, in September 2013.
