About 7a

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

7a is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Farnworth, Bolton, Bolton (BL4 0BZ). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 980 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A.
