Overview

About 118 Plodder Lane

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

118 Plodder Lane is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Farnworth, Bolton, Bolton (BL4 0BU). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (April 2026) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since December 2014. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

Held since April 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £165,000 sits 96.4% above the 2007 sale of £84,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£107/sq ft) was about 19.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
