About 23 Broadbent Drive
23 Broadbent Drive is a semi-detached house in Bury (BL9 7TN). It has a recorded floor area of 67 m² (around 725 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2008) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 73), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since January 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 £214,000 sits 59.4% above the 2009 sale of £134,250. At 67 m² it's 22.5% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (87 m² median across 15 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs).
