About 150 Blackburn Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
150 Blackburn Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Bolton (BL1 8DR). It has a recorded floor area of 37 m² (around 398 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. At 37 m² this is the 5th smallest of 10 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 28–193 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (46 versus a best of 81). The latest certificate (April 2025) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 66). Main heating runs on electricity.
It hasn't traded since January 2009, a hold of 18 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 37 m² it's 15.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (44 m² median across 9 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs). 3 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 2 refused. Across 2006–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 56.2% per year.
