Overview

About 26 North Avenue

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

26 North Avenue is a semi-detached house in Farnworth, Bolton, Bolton (BL4 0BW). It has a recorded floor area of 69 m² (around 743 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (August 2014) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since October 1998 — that's 28 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £169,000 sits 463.3% above the 1998 sale of £30,000.
