About 4 Helmshore Road

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

4 Helmshore Road is a mid-terrace house in Holcombe, Bury, Bury (BL8 4PA). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (April 2015) 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. The latest certificate is from April 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£197/sq ft) was about 24.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs).
