Overview

About 7 Acresfield Close

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

7 Acresfield Close is a three-bedroom detached house in Blackrod, Bolton, Bolton (BL6 5ED). It has a recorded floor area of 174 m² (around 1873 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2016) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since July 2016. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 7 Acresfield Close is modelled from its 174 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BL6 5ED. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 7 Acresfield Close. 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 7 Acresfield Close was lodged in August 2016 at band D and expired in August 2026, 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. None is matched to 7 Acresfield Close. 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 11 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BL6 5ED, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
7 Acresfield Close is in council tax band C. 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.
