Overview

About 16 Fort Road

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

16 Fort Road is a semi-detached house in Prestwich, Manchester, Manchester (M25 0HA). It has a recorded floor area of 171 m² (around 1841 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows an F (score 29), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it E (January 2014); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since April 1995, a hold of 31 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 171 m² the property is well over the postcode median (128 m² across 17 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £260,000 sits 374.9% above the 1995 sale of £54,750. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£30/sq ft) was about 54.4% below the postcode norm.

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 16 Fort Road is modelled from its 171 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in M25 0HA. 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 16 Fort Road. 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 16 Fort Road was lodged in June 2015 at band F and expired in June 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 16 Fort Road. 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 5 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 45 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from M25 0HA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
16 Fort Road 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.
