About 26 Albion Road
26 Albion Road is a mid-terrace house in Rochdale (OL11 4HQ). It has a recorded floor area of 131 m² (around 1410 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (August 2015) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (July 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). The latest certificate is from August 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in May 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 131 m² the property is well over the postcode median (86 m² across 26 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1995–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 14.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £189,000 sits 122.4% above the 2008 sale of £85,000. 3 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
