Overview

About 4 Mere Close

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

4 Mere Close is a three-bedroom detached house in Unsworth, Bury, Bury (BL9 8NY). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 980 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since June 2001 — that's 25 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Today's modelled estimate of £320,000 sits 233.5% above the 2001 sale of £95,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£98/sq ft) was about 26.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2015. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 91 m² it's 28.2% larger than the typical home in the postcode (71 m² median across 7 EPCs).
