About 70 Chorley New Road

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

70 Chorley New Road is a detached house in Lostock, Bolton, Bolton (BL6 4AL). It has a recorded floor area of 160 m² (around 1723 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (July 2010) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 60).

At 160 m² it's 23.2% larger than the typical home in the postcode (130 m² median across 14 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs). Across 2004–2011, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £722,000 is 24.5% above the 2011 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£337/sq ft) was about 65.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in September 2011, so it's been off the market for around 15 years.
