About Holly Villa
Holly Villa is a four-bedroom detached house in Greenmount, Bury, Bury (BL8 4HP). It has a recorded floor area of 260 m² (around 2799 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (June 2016) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 69), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views and attached land beyond the plot. Period features are noted in the property record. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
At 260 m² the property is well over the postcode median (177 m² across 8 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£272/sq ft) was about 30.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold May 2024 for £760,000.
