Overview

About 21 Barlow Street

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

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. At 97 m² it's 16.9% larger than the typical home in the postcode (83 m² median across 25 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 72% of similar EPCs). Last sold in July 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.
