Overview

About 138 Wood Lane

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

138 Wood Lane is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Heskin, Chorley, Chorley (PR7 5NP). It has a recorded floor area of 63 m² (around 677 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2011) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The latest certificate is from July 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

At 63 m² it sits well below the postcode median (102 m² across 25 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2008. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £304,000 is 16.9% above the 2017 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£384/sq ft) was about 119.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last changed hands 9 years ago, in August 2017.

Method

How to read this page

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 138 Wood Lane is modelled from its 63 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in PR7 5NP. 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 138 Wood Lane. 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 138 Wood Lane was lodged in July 2011 at band D and expired in July 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 138 Wood Lane. 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 7 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PR7 5NP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
138 Wood Lane is in council tax band C. 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.
