How the estimate is made
The estimate for 2 Blundell Drive is modelled from its 256 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PR8 4RG.

About 2 Blundell Drive
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
2 Blundell Drive is a five-bedroom detached house in Southport (PR8 4RG). It has a recorded floor area of 256 m² (around 2754 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (September 2011) shows an F (score 37), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 52). The latest certificate is from September 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.
At 256 m² it's 27.3% larger than the typical home in the postcode (201 m² median across 14 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 1999–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £564,000 sits 55.8% above the 2014 sale of £362,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£131/sq ft) was about 26% below the postcode norm. Last sold in January 2014, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.

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 2 Blundell Drive is modelled from its 256 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PR8 4RG. 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 2 Blundell Drive. 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 2 Blundell Drive was lodged in September 2011 at band F and expired in September 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 2 Blundell Drive. 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 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 11 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PR8 4RG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 2 Blundell Drive is in council tax band G. 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.
