About 16 Bent Fold Drive
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
16 Bent Fold Drive is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Bury (BL9 8NG). It has a recorded floor area of 134 m² (around 1442 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it B (April 2014); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72). The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Today's modelled estimate of £356,000 is 42.4% above the 2015 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£173/sq ft) was about 30.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last changed hands 11 years ago, in September 2015.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 16 Bent Fold Drive is modelled from its 134 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BL9 8NG. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 16 Bent Fold Drive. 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 16 Bent Fold Drive was lodged in July 2015 at band D and expired in July 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 16 Bent Fold Drive. 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 11 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 24 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BL9 8NG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 16 Bent Fold Drive is in council tax band D. 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.
