How this area has changed
Typical prices for terraced houses, now and in years gone by. The twelve months to September 2026 against the same twelve months back then.
| Area | Now | 5 years ago | 10 years ago | 15 years ago | 20 years ago |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Beech Avenue | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector BB3 3 | £125,000 | £92,500 +35% since | £70,000 +79% since | £69,000 +81% since | £64,997 +92% 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.
How homes change hands in BB3 3, over the last five years (1,353 sales):
- What sells: 44% terraced, 29% detached, 20% semi-detached, 3% flats, 2% other.
- 30% sold leasehold, and 30% were new builds.
- 186 sales in the last twelve months, against 244 in the same twelve months five years ago.
