Overview

About Croft Gate Farm

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

Croft Gate Farm is a detached house in Turton, Bolton, Bolton (BL7 0PR). It has a recorded floor area of 156 m² (around 1679 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (May 2013) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in March 2010 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and main heating went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from May 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £506,000 is 13.5% below the 2017 sale of £585,000, a rare downward gap that often correlates with deferred maintenance or unfinished works. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£348/sq ft) was about 94% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 156 m² the property is well over the postcode median (109 m² across 10 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2018. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. On the market in May 2017 and unlisted since — roughly 9 years.

How the estimate is made
The estimate for Croft Gate Farm is modelled from its 156 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BL7 0PR.

Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for Croft Gate Farm. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
