The estimate for Red Cot is modelled from its 133 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BL6 7RT. 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.

Red Cot is a two-bedroom detached house in Rivington, Bolton, Bolton (BL6 7RT). It has a recorded floor area of 133 m² (around 1432 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in October 2008 the rating was G, the property has climbed 2 bands since.

The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 69), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 133 m² it sits well below the postcode median (204 m² across 7 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2019.
