About 5 Brook House Close
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.
