About 181 Walmersley Road
181 Walmersley Road is a mid-terrace house in Bury (BL9 5DF). It has a recorded floor area of 234 m² (around 2519 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 71). The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since September 1996 — that's 30 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 234 m² the property is well over the postcode median (83 m² across 35 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £293,000 sits 671.1% above the 1996 sale of £38,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£15/sq ft) was about 81.9% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2025. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
