How Brooklands, Bolton prices moved

Median of the yearly medians in each decade.

The highest yearly median on record for Brooklands, Bolton is £282,500 in 2022; the lowest is £87,950 in 1995. Across the full 28-year record the cash median has moved from £87,950 to £282,500.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £195,291, so the real change over the whole record is +67.6% — about +1.93% a year after inflation. Cash growth and real growth are not the same story, and the gap is the part most price reports leave out.

Over the last decade alone the difference is stark: +83.4% in cash against +12.4% once inflation is removed. A buyer who sold at the end of that decade would have needed the real figure, not the headline one, to know whether they had actually gained.

Homes that sold twice

These addresses appear in the register more than once, so the same bricks are being priced twice. That makes them the strongest evidence of what actually happened to Brooklands, Bolton values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

What sells here

The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Brooklands, Bolton is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.

Ownership and new build in Brooklands, Bolton

0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 150 freehold — 0.0% of the market. Tenure is not a detail: a leasehold flat and a freehold house are different assets, and mixing them into one median hides the difference.

CategorySalesShareMedian paid
Leasehold00.0%

New build6744.7%£88,950
Existing home8355.3%£195,000
Shares are of the sales used on this page.

New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -54.4%. A new-build premium is normal: the buyer gets a warranty and nothing to fix, and the price is set by a developer rather than negotiated between two households.

A further 1 transfers for this area are on the register but are left out of every figure above. HM Land Registry marks them as additional price paid entries: repossessions, buy-to-let portfolio moves, transfers between companies or family, and sales at a discount such as right to buy. They are real records but they are not open-market prices, and including them would drag the median somewhere no buyer ever paid.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Bolton at £882 a month as of Jun 2026 — £645 for a one-bedroom home and £974 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £113,500 here, that rent is a gross yield of 9.33% a year. It is a measured figure rather than an assumption: a real local rent over a real local price, before any cost of ownership.

No street-level crime was published for BL6 in Jun 2026. Several forces do not supply street-level data to police.uk, so this is a gap in the source rather than a crime-free month — and printing a zero would say something the data does not.

How Brooklands, Bolton compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Brooklands, Bolton sits below that national figure — -27.9%.

Within Bolton the street ranks 1487 of 3171 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £98,000 (+15.8%).

No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published here. An estimate would be a guess, and the archive does not publish guesses.

The full range on record runs from £59,000 to £390,000. Extremes usually mean something unusual — a plot sold without a house on it, a transfer between family members, or a very large property — so the median is the number to trust.

Brooklands, Bolton sits in Bolton, in the North West.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Bolton at 6.2 times median local earnings of £33,008 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6. That number, not the price alone, is what decides whether a place is within reach of the people who work in it.

Quick answers

Common questions about this data

What is the average house price in Brooklands, Bolton?

The median price paid in Brooklands, Bolton across every sale on the register is £113,500. The median is used rather than the mean because a handful of very large sales would otherwise drag the average away from what a typical buyer paid.

How many homes have sold in Brooklands, Bolton?

150 sales are on record for Brooklands, Bolton, the most recent completing on 26 May 2026. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

Have Brooklands, Bolton house prices actually risen?

In cash, the median rose +83.4% between 2003 and 2022. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is +12.4%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.

When were Brooklands, Bolton house prices at their highest?

The highest yearly median on record is £282,500, set in 2022. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.

What is the price per square metre in Brooklands, Bolton?

No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published for this area. Nothing is estimated to fill the gap.

How current is this data?

The latest sale shown here completed on 26 May 2026. HM Land Registry publishes Price Paid Data monthly and a sale can take a month or two to appear after completion, so the most recent weeks are always incomplete.
