About 126 Brandlesholme Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
126 Brandlesholme Road is a semi-detached house in Bury (BL8 1AU). It has a recorded floor area of 109 m² (around 1173 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since March 2014. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). The latest certificate is from January 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since October 1999 — that's 27 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £242,000 sits 572.2% above the 1999 sale of £36,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£31/sq ft) was about 70.6% below the postcode norm.

- 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 126 Brandlesholme Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
