About 6 Albany Drive
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
6 Albany Drive is a four-bedroom detached house in Bury (BL9 9RD). It has a recorded floor area of 239 m² (around 2573 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (January 2014) shows a C (score 74). When first surveyed in March 2011 the rating was G, the property has climbed 4 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good and window efficiency went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 84). The latest certificate is from January 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The property has underfloor heating 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.
At 239 m² the property is well over the postcode median (91 m² across 9 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 89% of similar EPCs). 6 planning records sit against the property, 5 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2002–2019, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £642,000 is 24.7% above the 2019 sale price. Most recent transfer: February 2019 at £515,000.

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 6 Albany Drive is modelled from its 239 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BL9 9RD. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 6 Albany 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 6 Albany Drive was lodged in January 2014 at band C and expired in January 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 6 applications are matched to 6 Albany 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 34 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BL9 9RD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 6 Albany Drive is in council tax band E. 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.
