Overview

About 8 Chaucer Street

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

8 Chaucer Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Bolton (BL1 3HR). It has a recorded floor area of 56 m² (around 603 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (March 2013) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £121,000 sits 51.2% above the 2020 sale of £80,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£133/sq ft) was about 55.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2012. Past consents include an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Most recent transfer: September 2020 at £80,000.
