About 159 Bolton Road
159 Bolton Road is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Turton, Bolton, Bolton (BL7 0AF). It has a recorded floor area of 108 m² (around 1166 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2009) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in April 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and main heating went from Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The latest certificate is from October 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a basement. Period features are noted in the property record.
It hasn't traded since December 2009, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused. At 108 m² it's 20.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (137 m² median across 13 EPCs). Across 2009–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 48% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £255,000 is 37.9% above the 2009 sale price.
