About 7 Chaucer Street
7 Chaucer Street is a five-bedroom mid-terrace house in Bolton (BL1 3HR). It has a recorded floor area of 146 m² (around 1572 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band A. The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The latest certificate (November 2025) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 84).
Untraded for 26 years, with the last transfer in January 2000. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 146 m² the property is well over the postcode median (56 m² across 18 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £247,000 sits 517.6% above the 2000 sale of £39,995. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£25/sq ft) was about 72.6% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused.
