About 11 Bedford Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
11 Bedford Street is a mid-terrace house in Bolton (BL1 4BA). It has a recorded floor area of 17 m² (around 183 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 17 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (17–188 m²). The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 13 units on file. The latest certificate (March 2022) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (March 2022); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on to be used only when there is no heating/hot.
Held since December 1995 — that's 31 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £123,000 sits 324.1% above the 1995 sale of £29,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£158/sq ft) was about 126.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 17 m² it sits well below the postcode median (62 m² across 12 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs).

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 11 Bedford Street is modelled from its 17 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BL1 4BA. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 11 Bedford Street. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 11 Bedford Street was lodged in March 2022 at band E and is valid until March 2032. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 11 Bedford Street. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 11 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 49 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BL1 4BA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 11 Bedford Street is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
