4 Cambridge Avenue, Rochdale, OL11 4DR
About 4 Cambridge Avenue
4 Cambridge Avenue is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Rochdale (OL11 4DR). It has a recorded floor area of 154 m² (around 1658 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 5 certificates since June 2010. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, window efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). The latest certificate is from January 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
At 154 m² the property is well over the postcode median (100 m² across 4 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £282,000 sits 70.9% above the 2012 sale of £165,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£100/sq ft) was about 49.8% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in July 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.
