2 Canning Street, Bury, BL9 5AS
About 2 Canning Street
2 Canning Street is an end-of-terrace house in Bury (BL9 5AS). It has a recorded floor area of 99 m² (around 1066 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (May 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in June 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 99 m² the property is well over the postcode median (74 m² across 54 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs). Across 2003–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at -2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £141,000 sits 252.5% above the 2009 sale of £40,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£38/sq ft) was about 46.5% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: a loft conversion approved in 2019. Past consents include a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
