About 53 Blind Lane
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
53 Blind Lane is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Sunderland (SR3 1AS). It has a recorded floor area of 64 m² (around 689 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 64 m² this is the 8th smallest of 15 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 55–108 m². The building's EPC ratings span G to C across 15 units on file. The latest certificate (April 2014) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72).

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 53 Blind Lane is modelled from its 64 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in SR3 1AS. 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 53 Blind Lane. 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 53 Blind Lane was lodged in April 2014 at band D and expired in April 2024, 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 53 Blind Lane. 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 18 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 30 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SR3 1AS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 53 Blind Lane is in council tax band A. 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.
