Overview

About 6 Blackhorse Avenue

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

6 Blackhorse Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Blackrod, Bolton, Bolton (BL6 5HE). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1012 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band B. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (April 2025) returns a B (score 84), comfortably above the UK average. When first surveyed in January 2014 the rating was D, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to A (score 94). The property has solar panels and an EV charger on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include outbuildings. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 94 m² it's 22.1% larger than the typical home in the postcode (77 m² median across 17 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Today's modelled estimate of £268,000 sits 176.3% above the 2015 sale of £97,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£96/sq ft) was about 42.6% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in April 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.

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 6 Blackhorse Avenue is modelled from its 94 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BL6 5HE. 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 6 Blackhorse Avenue. 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 6 Blackhorse Avenue was lodged in April 2025 at band B and is valid until April 2035. 4 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 2 applications are matched to 6 Blackhorse Avenue. 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 10 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BL6 5HE, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
6 Blackhorse Avenue is in council tax band B. 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.
