Overview

About 17 Carnforth Avenue

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

17 Carnforth Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Rochdale (OL11 2YD). It has a recorded floor area of 39 m² (around 420 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (July 2013) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. 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. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

At 39 m² it sits well below the postcode median (74 m² across 38 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £188,000 is 33.6% above the 2021 sale price.
