2 Forest Way is a three-bedroom detached house in Bromley Cross, Bolton, Bolton (BL7 9YE). It has a recorded floor area of 105 m² (around 1135 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2009) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The latest certificate is from June 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in November 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales.

Today's modelled estimate of £371,000 is 39% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£235/sq ft) was about 31.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
