Overview

About 17 Highland Road

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

17 Highland Road is a two-bedroom detached house in Bromley Cross, Bolton, Bolton (BL7 9NL). It has a recorded floor area of 69 m² (around 745 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2012) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 66). The latest certificate is from February 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 69 m² it sits well below the postcode median (121 m² across 10 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in May 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years. Today's modelled estimate of £270,000 is 35.2% above the 2012 sale price.
