About 9 Briarfield Road

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

9 Briarfield Road is a semi-detached house in Farnworth, Bolton, Bolton (BL4 0HD). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (November 2015) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 3 certificates since February 2009. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 2004–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £179,000 sits 55.7% above the 2022 sale of £115,000. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 82% of similar EPCs). Last sale on file: £115,000 in July 2022. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
