Overview

About 17 Fort Road

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

17 Fort Road is a semi-detached house in Prestwich, Manchester, Manchester (M25 0HA). It has a recorded floor area of 124 m² (around 1335 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2015) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in August 2014 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since October 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £293,000 sits 432.7% above the 2007 sale of £55,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£41/sq ft) was about 36.8% below the postcode norm.
