About Rivington Lodge

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

Rivington Lodge is a detached house in Rivington, Bolton, Bolton (BL6 7RT). It has a recorded floor area of 470 m² (around 5059 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (April 2015) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £848,000 is 26.3% below the 2018 sale of £1,150,000, below the original sale price, which typically signals condition or completion-status changes worth verifying. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£227/sq ft) was about 20.8% below the postcode norm. At 470 m² the property is well over the postcode median (176 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2019.
