About 20 Sussex Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
20 Sussex Street is a mid-terrace house in Rochdale (OL11 1EL). It has a recorded floor area of 174 m² (around 1873 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2013) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since July 2013. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 69), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since May 1998, a hold of 28 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £199,000 sits 463.7% above the 1998 sale of £35,300. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£19/sq ft) was about 52.3% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2020. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 174 m² it's 29.9% larger than the typical home in the postcode (134 m² median across 33 EPCs).

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 20 Sussex Street is modelled from its 174 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in OL11 1EL. 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 20 Sussex 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 20 Sussex Street was lodged in July 2013 at band E and expired in July 2023, 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. 1 application is matched to 20 Sussex 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 1EL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 20 Sussex Street 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.
