About 147 New Street

147 New Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Blackrod, Bolton, Bolton (BL6 5AW). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 980 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (December 2012) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.
