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 8th smallest of 14 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 56–83 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.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 17 Aston Gardens is modelled from its 74 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BL4 7TB. 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 17 Aston Gardens. 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 17 Aston Gardens was lodged in March 2016 at band C and expired in March 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 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 17 Aston Gardens. 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 40 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BL4 7TB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 17 Aston Gardens is in council tax band A. 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.
