Overview

About 21 Crescent Road

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

21 Crescent Road is a semi-detached house in Kearsley, Bolton, Bolton (BL4 8LF). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (December 2014) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since April 2014. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average; while lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since February 2001, a hold of 25 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £164,000 sits 485.7% above the 2001 sale of £28,000.
