Overview

About 5 Albert Grove

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

5 Albert Grove is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Farnworth, Bolton, Bolton (BL4 9ED). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 700 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (April 2014) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 4 certificates since September 2010. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Poor; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
