About 17 Bradford Park Drive
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
17 Bradford Park Drive is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Bolton (BL2 1PA). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 667 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2026) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in September 2015 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 84). This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
Today's modelled estimate of £193,000 sits 82.1% above the 2017 sale of £106,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£159/sq ft) was about 23.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 62 m² it's 29.5% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (88 m² median across 31 EPCs). Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 84% of similar EPCs). Last sold in April 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years.
