Overview

About Moss Bank House

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

Moss Bank House is an end-of-terrace house in Bolton (BL1 6LU). It has a recorded floor area of 99 m² (around 1066 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1991-1995. At 99 m² this is the 7th smallest of 8 units on EPC record in Moss Bank House, where floor areas span 47–159 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B across 8 units on file. The latest certificate (August 2013) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 3 certificates since December 2008. The latest certificate is from August 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since December 2008 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 99 m² it's 22% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (127 m² median across 30 EPCs). Across 1995–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £210,000 is 31.3% above the 2008 sale price.
