About 8 Strawberry Hill Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
8 Strawberry Hill Road is a semi-detached house in Bolton (BL2 1LP). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 700 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since April 2014. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

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 8 Strawberry Hill Road is modelled from its 65 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BL2 1LP. 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 8 Strawberry Hill 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 8 Strawberry Hill Road was lodged in June 2014 at band E and expired in June 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 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 8 Strawberry Hill 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 9 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 53 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BL2 1LP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 8 Strawberry Hill Road is in council tax band B. 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.
