About 291 Rochdale Road
291 Rochdale Road is an end-of-terrace house in Oldham (OL1 2HG). It has a recorded floor area of 58 m² (around 624 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. At 58 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 10 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 39–78 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (45 versus a best of 69). The latest certificate (March 2016) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 58). The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since March 2003 — that's 23 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Today's modelled estimate of £116,000 sits 828% above the 2003 sale of £12,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£20/sq ft) was about 51.3% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 78% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2014.
