About 15 Westwood Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
15 Westwood Road is a semi-detached house in Bolton (BL1 4DL). It has a recorded floor area of 210 m² (around 2260 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows an F (score 25), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it C (August 2013); the latest reading is 3 bands lower. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 52). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 210 m² the property is well over the postcode median (47 m² across 35 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 2001–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £274,000 sits 59.3% above the 2015 sale of £172,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£76/sq ft) was about 46% below the postcode norm. Last sold in February 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.
