Overview

About 1 Brookhouse Close

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

1 Brookhouse Close is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Greenmount, Bury, Bury (BL8 4QN). It has a recorded floor area of 194 m² (around 2083 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2009) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). The latest certificate is from June 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since October 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £462,000 sits 84.8% above the 2009 sale of £250,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£120/sq ft) was about 24.4% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

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 1 Brookhouse Close is modelled from its 194 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BL8 4QN. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 1 Brookhouse Close. 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 1 Brookhouse Close was lodged in June 2009 at band D and expired in June 2019, 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. 2 applications are matched to 1 Brookhouse Close. 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 17 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BL8 4QN, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
1 Brookhouse Close 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.
