About Lynden Villa
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Lynden Villa is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Chorley (PR7 1LB). It has a recorded floor area of 51 m² (around 549 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. At 51 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 6 units on EPC record in Lynden Villa, where floor areas span 38–74 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (March 2019) shows a C (score 71). The rating has held steady at C across 4 certificates since December 2008. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good.
Today's modelled estimate of £106,000 is 18.5% below the 2008 sale of £130,000, running counter to the wider postcode trend, which makes the EPC and condition history especially worth a look. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£237/sq ft) was about 79.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Held since April 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.
