Overview

About 38 Watling Street

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

38 Watling Street is an end-of-terrace house in Affetside, Bury, Bury (BL8 3QW). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (January 2013) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from January 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £301,000 sits 64.5% above the 2014 sale of £183,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2014. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs). Last sold in August 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 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 38 Watling Street is modelled from its 77 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BL8 3QW. 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 38 Watling Street. 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 38 Watling Street was lodged in January 2013 at band E and expired in January 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 38 Watling Street. 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 8 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 14 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BL8 3QW, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
38 Watling Street is in council tax band E. 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.
