How the estimate is made
The estimate for 14a is modelled from its 103 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in FY4 4EE. 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 14a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
14a is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Blackpool (FY4 4EE). It has a recorded floor area of 103 m² (around 1109 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2026) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since January 2014. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and lighting dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. Other recorded features include outbuildings.
At 103 m² the property is well over the postcode median (78 m² across 10 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2006. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £185,000 is 36% above the 2023 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£123/sq ft) was about 31.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sale on file: £136,000 in April 2023.

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 14a is modelled from its 103 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in FY4 4EE. 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 14a. 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 14a was lodged in June 2026 at band D and is valid until June 2036. 2 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 14a. 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 22 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from FY4 4EE, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 14a is in council tax band C. 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.
