About 1 Blackburn Road

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

1 Blackburn Road is a two-bedroom detached house in Ribchester, Preston, Preston (PR3 3YP). It has a recorded floor area of 111 m² (around 1195 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (February 2021) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump.

At 111 m² it's 24.7% larger than the typical home in the postcode (89 m² median across 15 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 73% of similar EPCs).

That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
