Overview

About 30 Gilnow Road

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

30 Gilnow Road is a mid-terrace house in Bolton (BL1 4LJ). It has a recorded floor area of 123 m² (around 1324 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (June 2015); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting dropped from Very Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 67). The latest certificate is from January 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since June 2001 — that's 25 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 £153,000 sits 331% above the 2001 sale of £35,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£27/sq ft) was about 57% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2012.
