Overview

About 15 Laburnum Road

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

15 Laburnum Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Farnworth, Bolton, Bolton (BL4 0BG). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 947 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (September 2013) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 3 certificates since November 2008. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 79% of similar EPCs). Across 2009–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £204,000 is 20% above the 2022 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£179/sq ft) was about 114.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sale on file: £170,000 in March 2022. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
