Overview

About 197 Moorside Road

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

197 Moorside Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Urmston, Manchester, Manchester (M41 5SJ). It has a recorded floor area of 82 m² (around 883 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2013) shows a C (score 70). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 88). The latest certificate is from May 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since March 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 £290,000 sits 104.2% above the 2007 sale of £142,000. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 77% of similar EPCs).
