About 4a

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

4a is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Chorley (PR7 3HW). It has a recorded floor area of 52 m² (around 560 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. At 52 m² this is the 23rd smallest of 50 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 23–102 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C, with this unit at the top.

Across 2004–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £112,000 sits 100% above the 2014 sale of £56,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£100/sq ft) was about 15.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2009.
