About 1 Lower Fold
1 Lower Fold is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Hawkshaw, Bury, Bury (BL8 4JT). It has a recorded floor area of 138 m² (around 1485 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The latest certificate (February 2022) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75). Main heating runs on oil.
6 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. Today's modelled estimate of £496,000 is 15.3% above the 2022 sale price. Last sale on file: £430,000 in June 2022. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
