Overview

About 2 Broadway

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

2 Broadway is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Farnworth, Bolton, Bolton (BL4 0HQ). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 700 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (April 2014) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (October 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). Across 2006–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £194,000 is 33.8% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£207/sq ft) was about 137.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2018. Most recent transfer: January 2021 at £145,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
