Overview

About 15 Bennetts Lane

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

15 Bennetts Lane is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Bolton (BL1 6HY). It has a recorded floor area of 131 m² (around 1410 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (May 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Good to Very Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 65). The latest certificate is from January 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a loft.

Today's modelled estimate of £267,000 sits 56.1% above the 2013 sale of £171,000. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 131 m² it's 29.1% larger than the typical home in the postcode (102 m² median across 26 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 85% of similar EPCs). Last sold in November 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.
