About 38 Watling Street
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).
