Overview

About 13 Ferns Grove

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

13 Ferns Grove is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Bolton (BL1 4LT). It has a recorded floor area of 134 m² (around 1442 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (November 2025) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in June 2010 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good and roof efficiency went from Average to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 74). This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

Held since January 2006 — that's 20 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Today's modelled estimate of £339,000 sits 78.4% above the 2006 sale of £190,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2015. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 134 m² it's 26.4% larger than the typical home in the postcode (106 m² median across 5 EPCs).
