Overview

About 18 Mere Fold

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

18 Mere Fold is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Charnock Richard, Chorley, Chorley (PR7 5EX). It has a recorded floor area of 113 m² (around 1216 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows an F (score 31), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it D (September 2009); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, main heating went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 65), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

At 113 m² it's 24.2% larger than the typical home in the postcode (91 m² median across 9 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £245,000 is 48.5% above the 2014 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£136/sq ft) was about 30.2% below the postcode norm. Last changed hands 12 years ago, in June 2014.
