About 80 Dorset Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
80 Dorset Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Bolton (BL2 1HR). It has a recorded floor area of 96 m² (around 1033 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (May 2019) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (August 2012); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor.

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 80 Dorset Street is modelled from its 96 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BL2 1HR. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 80 Dorset Street. 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 80 Dorset Street was lodged in May 2019 at band E and is valid until May 2029. 5 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 80 Dorset Street. 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 9 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 50 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BL2 1HR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 80 Dorset Street 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.
