About 34 Chorley New Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
34 Chorley New Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Lostock, Bolton, Bolton (BL6 4AL). It has a recorded floor area of 85 m² (around 913 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2011) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in December 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 71). The latest certificate is from June 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 85 m² it sits well below the postcode median (135 m² across 14 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: a loft conversion approved in 2010. Past consents include a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2010–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at 51.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £436,000 is 24.6% above the 2012 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£383/sq ft) was about 84.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in February 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.

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 34 Chorley New Road is modelled from its 85 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BL6 4AL. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 34 Chorley New 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 34 Chorley New Road was lodged in June 2011 at band D and expired in June 2021, 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. 1 application is matched to 34 Chorley New 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 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 12 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BL6 4AL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 34 Chorley New Road is in council tax band E. 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.
