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.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 150 Blackburn Road is modelled from its 37 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BL1 8DR. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for 150 Blackburn Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 150 Blackburn Road was lodged in April 2025 at band E and is valid until April 2035. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 3 applications are matched to 150 Blackburn Road. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 11 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 47 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BL1 8DR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 150 Blackburn Road is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
