About 48 Bradford Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
48 Bradford Street is a seven-bedroom semi-detached house in Bolton (BL2 1JJ). It has a recorded floor area of 216 m² (around 2325 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (January 2014) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 65). The latest certificate is from January 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a loft. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
Held since March 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 216 m² the property is well over the postcode median (33 m² across 27 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs). 7 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £259,000 sits 159% above the 2007 sale of £100,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£43/sq ft) was about 95.4% below the postcode norm.

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 48 Bradford Street is modelled from its 216 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BL2 1JJ. 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 48 Bradford 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 48 Bradford Street was lodged in January 2014 at band E and expired in January 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 48 Bradford 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 1JJ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 48 Bradford Street is in council tax band D. 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.
