12 Chapel Grange, Turton, Bolton, BL7 0NL

12 Chapel Grange is a detached house in Turton, Bolton, Bolton (BL7 0NL). It has a recorded floor area of 160 m² (around 1722 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (December 2015) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 3 certificates since December 2014. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since September 1996, a hold of 30 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £598,000 sits 265.2% above the 1996 sale of £163,750. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£95/sq ft) was about 15.3% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2013. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
