3 Highland Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Bromley Cross, Bolton, Bolton (BL7 9NL).

The latest certificate is from December 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since August 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 134 m² the property is well over the postcode median (103 m² across 10 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2007. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £381,000 is 41.1% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£187/sq ft) was about 27.4% below the postcode norm.
