About 15 Carnforth Avenue
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
15 Carnforth Avenue is a semi-detached house in Rochdale (OL11 2YD). It has a recorded floor area of 103 m² (around 1109 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (December 2014) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in December 2014 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 103 m² the property is well over the postcode median (73 m² across 38 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1997–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £154,000 sits 156.7% above the 2014 sale of £60,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£54/sq ft) was about 55.5% below the postcode norm. Last sold in January 2014, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.

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 15 Carnforth Avenue is modelled from its 103 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in OL11 2YD. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 15 Carnforth Avenue. 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 15 Carnforth Avenue was lodged in December 2014 at band D and expired in December 2024, 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. None is matched to 15 Carnforth Avenue. 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 25 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from OL11 2YD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 15 Carnforth Avenue 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.
