16 Fort Road, Prestwich, Manchester, M25 0HA

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 16 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 £261,000 sits 376.7% above the 1995 sale of £54,750. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£30/sq ft) was about 54.1% below the postcode norm.
