Overview

About 18 Castle Croft

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

18 Castle Croft is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Bolton (BL2 3QT). It has a recorded floor area of 70 m² (around 753 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows a C (score 72). The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since February 2012. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 86). The latest certificate is from January 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

Across 2013–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £225,000 sits 60.7% above the 2016 sale of £140,000. Last sold in August 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 18 Castle Croft is modelled from its 70 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BL2 3QT. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 18 Castle Croft. 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 18 Castle Croft was lodged in January 2016 at band C and expired in January 2026, 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 18 Castle Croft. 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 31 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BL2 3QT, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
18 Castle Croft is in council tax band C. 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.
