Overview

About 5 Bridge Street

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

5 Bridge Street is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Horwich, Bolton, Bolton (BL6 7BT). It has a recorded floor area of 154 m² (around 1658 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

At 154 m² the property is well over the postcode median (108 m² across 10 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). 3 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations. On the market in May 2017 and unlisted since — roughly 9 years. Today's modelled estimate of £281,000 is 24.9% above the 2017 sale price.
