Overview

About 4 Avondale Road

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

4 Avondale Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Farnworth, Bolton, Bolton (BL4 0PA). It has a recorded floor area of 41 m² (around 441 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (August 2025) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in October 2008 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The property has an EV charger on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal.

Today's modelled estimate of £184,000 sits 73.6% above the 2015 sale of £106,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£240/sq ft) was about 81.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 41 m² it sits well below the postcode median (80 m² across 10 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 80% of similar EPCs). Last sold in May 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 4 Avondale Road is modelled from its 41 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BL4 0PA. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 4 Avondale Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 4 Avondale Road was lodged in August 2025 at band C and is valid until August 2035. 4 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 4 Avondale Road. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 4 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 45 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BL4 0PA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
4 Avondale Road is in council tax band B. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
