Overview

About 6 Marsh Lane

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

6 Marsh Lane is a semi-detached house in Farnworth, Bolton, Bolton (BL4 0AP). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1012 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (January 2015) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since September 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 94 m² it's 27.9% larger than the typical home in the postcode (74 m² median across 10 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 2002–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £184,000 sits 79.5% above the 2008 sale of £102,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£101/sq ft) was about 16.4% below the postcode norm.

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 6 Marsh Lane is modelled from its 94 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BL4 0AP. 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 6 Marsh Lane. 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 6 Marsh Lane was lodged in January 2015 at band E and expired in January 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 6 Marsh Lane. 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 4 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 45 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BL4 0AP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
6 Marsh Lane is in council tax band B. 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.
