About 18 Chorley Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
18 Chorley Road is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Blackrod, Bolton, Bolton (BL6 5JS). It has a recorded floor area of 63 m² (around 678 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (April 2012) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in October 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Good to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 89), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
