About 14 Ford Lane

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

14 Ford Lane is a semi-detached house in Didsbury, Manchester, Manchester (M20 2TJ). It has a recorded floor area of 138 m² (around 1485 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2026) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

Today's modelled estimate of £700,000 sits 410.9% above the 2001 sale of £137,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£92/sq ft) was about 68.3% below the postcode norm. 3 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 138 m² it's 20% larger than the typical home in the postcode (115 m² median across 12 EPCs).
