About 17 The Arches
17 The Arches is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Bolton (BL1 1ES). It has a recorded floor area of 66 m² (around 710 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (July 2023) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since February 2011.

It hasn't traded since October 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 66 m² the property is well over the postcode median (45 m² across 17 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.
