About 7 Hillside Avenue
7 Hillside Avenue is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Blackrod, Bolton, Bolton (BL6 5BS). It has a recorded floor area of 128 m² (around 1378 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (June 2017) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 2-band jump. Other recorded features include a loft. Period features are noted in the property record. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
Held since February 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 128 m² the property is well over the postcode median (92 m² across 16 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £271,000 sits 58.9% above the 2007 sale of £170,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£124/sq ft) was about 31.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
