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.

About 1 Suffolk Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
1 Suffolk Street is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Rochdale (OL11 1EG). It has a recorded floor area of 55 m² (around 592 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (August 2014) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (November 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Good to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and lighting dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 25 years, with the last transfer in July 2001. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £106,000 sits 863.6% above the 2001 sale of £11,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£19/sq ft) was about 70.9% below the postcode norm.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 1 Suffolk Street is modelled from its 55 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in OL11 1EG. 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 1 Suffolk Street. 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 1 Suffolk Street was lodged in August 2014 at band E and expired in August 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 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 1 Suffolk Street. 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 10 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 36 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from OL11 1EG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 1 Suffolk Street is in council tax band A. 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.
