About 17 Craighall Road
17 Craighall Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Bolton (BL1 7HH). It has a recorded floor area of 159 m² (around 1711 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2026) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in October 2008 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. The home occupies a corner plot and a cul-de-sac position.
It hasn't traded since August 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 159 m² the property is well over the postcode median (101 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2000–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £402,000 sits 63.4% above the 2009 sale of £246,000.
