Overview

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 24th smallest of 51 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. Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe. The latest certificate (September 2024) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since November 2013. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average.

Across 2004–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £105,000 sits 87.5% 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. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in May 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 4a is modelled from its 52 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PR7 3HW. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 4a. 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 4a was lodged in September 2024 at band C and is valid until September 2034. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 4a. 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 21 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PR7 3HW, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
4a 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.
