Overview

About Castle Court

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

Castle Court is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Bolton (BL2 1AD). It has a recorded floor area of 41 m² (around 441 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band A. At 41 m² this is the 4th smallest of 10 units on EPC record in Castle Court, where floor areas span 40–46 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (July 2021) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (May 2011); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). Main heating runs on electricity.

Across 1999–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 27.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £156,000 is 22% below the 2007 sale of £200,000, below the original sale price, which typically signals condition or completion-status changes worth verifying. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£453/sq ft) was about 612% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in October 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 41 m² it sits well below the postcode median (102 m² across 31 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
