About Balmoral Court
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Balmoral Court is a two-bedroom detached house in Chorley (PR7 1LQ). It has a recorded floor area of 54 m² (around 581 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band B. At 54 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 6 units on EPC record in Balmoral Court, where floor areas span 53–61 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to D, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (May 2026) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in May 2016 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and main heating dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). Main heating runs on electricity. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
It hasn't traded since July 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £123,000 sits 129.9% above the 1999 sale of £53,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£92/sq ft) was about 47.1% below the postcode norm. At 54 m² it sits well below the postcode median (95 m² across 14 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.

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 Balmoral Court is modelled from its 54 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in PR7 1LQ. 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 Balmoral Court. 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 Balmoral Court was lodged in May 2026 at band D and is valid until May 2036. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Balmoral Court. 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 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 23 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PR7 1LQ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Balmoral Court is in council tax band B. 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.
