About 2 Thorn Street
2 Thorn Street is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Summerseat, Bury, Bury (BL9 5PN). It has a recorded floor area of 90 m² (around 969 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2013) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in May 2007. Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2015. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1995–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £255,000 is 38.6% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£190/sq ft) was about 21.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
