Overview

About 57 Highfield Road

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

57 Highfield Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Farnworth, Bolton, Bolton (BL4 0AH). It has a recorded floor area of 67 m² (around 721 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in July 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £164,000 sits 67.3% above the 2007 sale of £98,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£136/sq ft) was about 24.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
