About 23 Chestnut Drive
23 Chestnut Drive is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Barnoldswick (BB18 5QY). It has a recorded floor area of 110 m² (around 1184 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Past consents include tree works and an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations.

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