Overview

About 3 Mere Close

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

3 Mere Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Unsworth, Bury, Bury (BL9 8NY). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 764 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2013) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since November 2008. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). The latest certificate is from July 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

Held since December 1995 — that's 31 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. Today's modelled estimate of £264,000 sits 355.6% above the 1995 sale of £57,950. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2005. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 71 m² it's 22% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (91 m² median across 7 EPCs).
