About 17 Aston Gardens

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

17 Aston Gardens is a two-bedroom detached house in Farnworth, Bolton, Bolton (BL4 7TB). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 797 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. At 74 m² this is the 5th smallest of 14 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 66–83 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows a C (score 73). When first surveyed in November 2014 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and main heating went from Average to Good. The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
