About 21 Barlow Street
21 Barlow Street is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Horwich, Bolton, Bolton (BL6 5PL). It has a recorded floor area of 97 m² (around 1044 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory and a basement.
Today's modelled estimate of £160,000 sits 220% above the 2013 sale of £50,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£48/sq ft) was about 39.7% below the postcode norm.
