Overview

About 5 Brook House Close

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

5 Brook House Close is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Bolton (BL2 3QS). It has a recorded floor area of 102 m² (around 1098 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2012) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

At 102 m² the property is well over the postcode median (72 m² across 20 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1996–2001, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £272,000 sits 288.8% above the 2001 sale of £69,950.
