About 5 Alpine Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
5 Alpine Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Chorley (PR6 8TW). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 697 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since July 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £183,000 sits 52.5% above the 2009 sale of £120,000. At 65 m² it's 25.6% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (87 m² median across 3 EPCs).

Start your researchHow to read this page
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 5 Alpine Road is modelled from its 65 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in PR6 8TW. 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 5 Alpine Road. 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 5 Alpine Road was lodged in October 2008 at band D and expired in October 2018, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 5 Alpine Road. 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 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 15 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PR6 8TW, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 5 Alpine Road is in council tax band C. 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.
