How the estimate is made
The estimate for 21 Bolton Street is modelled from its 36 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in FY1 6AB. 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.

About 21 Bolton Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
21 Bolton Street is an end-of-terrace house in Blackpool (FY1 6AB). It has a recorded floor area of 36 m² (around 388 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (July 2021) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it B (June 2011); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76).

Today's modelled estimate of £120,000 is 35.1% below the 2019 sale of £185,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£477/sq ft) was about 518.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 36 m² it sits well below the postcode median (57 m² across 24 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 4 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include subdivision, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Most recent transfer: January 2019 at £185,000.

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 21 Bolton Street is modelled from its 36 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in FY1 6AB. 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 21 Bolton Street. 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 21 Bolton Street was lodged in July 2021 at band D and is valid until July 2031. 4 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 4 applications are matched to 21 Bolton Street. 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 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 19 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from FY1 6AB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 21 Bolton Street is in council tax band A. 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.
