Overview

About 8 Alexandra Crescent

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

8 Alexandra Crescent is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Oldham (OL1 4DT). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 797 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (May 2022) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since August 2011. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since December 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. 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 £136,000 is 47.8% above the 2007 sale price.
