Overview

About 28 Ash Grove

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

28 Ash Grove is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Prestwich, Manchester, Manchester (M25 3DS). It has a recorded floor area of 54 m² (around 581 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2015) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since March 2013. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Good to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and lighting dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £220,000 sits 86.4% above the 2015 sale of £118,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£203/sq ft) was about 27.1% below the postcode norm. At 54 m² it sits well below the postcode median (82 m² across 10 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Last sold in May 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.

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 28 Ash Grove is modelled from its 54 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in M25 3DS. 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 28 Ash Grove. 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 28 Ash Grove was lodged in February 2015 at band D and expired in February 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 28 Ash Grove. 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 30 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from M25 3DS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
28 Ash Grove is in council tax band B. 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.
