About 23 Castlewood Square

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

23 Castlewood Square is a semi-detached house in Bolton (BL2 2LZ). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 893 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump.
