How this area has changed
Typical prices for terraced houses, now and in years gone by. The twelve months to August 2026 against the same twelve months back then.
| Area | Now | 5 years ago | 10 years ago | 15 years ago | 20 years ago |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Alpha Street | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector BB3 2 | £142,500 | £105,000 +36% since | £80,000 +78% since | £73,000 +95% since | £78,000 +83% since |
| Blackburn | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
The typical price is the middle sale of the twelve months, not the average, so one very dear or very cheap sale cannot pull it about. Standard sales only. A figure needs at least 15 sales behind it; with fewer, it says so.
Crime within about 500 metres. Last 12 months vs the 12 months before: 124 vs 150 (-17%)
