Overview

About Ousel Nest House

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

Ousel Nest House is a detached house in Bromley Cross, Bolton, Bolton (BL7 9AX). It has a recorded floor area of 597 m² (around 6426 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2012) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since October 2009. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and window efficiency went from Poor to Average; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and lighting dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £1,224,000 is 55.5% below the 2018 sale of £2,750,000, below the original sale price, which typically signals condition or completion-status changes worth verifying. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£428/sq ft) was about 84.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 597 m² the property is well over the postcode median (94 m² across 14 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. 6 planning records sit against the property, 5 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include tree works, an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in July 2018, so it's been off the market for around 8 years.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for Ousel Nest House is modelled from its 597 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BL7 9AX. 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.
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 Ousel Nest House. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for Ousel Nest House was lodged in May 2012 at band E and expired in May 2022, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 6 applications are matched to Ousel Nest House. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 21 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BL7 9AX, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Ousel Nest House is in council tax band B. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
