Overview

About 1b

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

1b is a detached house in Rochdale (OL11 5HN). It has a recorded floor area of 214 m² (around 2303 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2021) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it C (November 2008); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 64).

It hasn't traded since May 2003, a hold of 23 years that's notably long for the area. At 214 m² the property is well over the postcode median (148 m² across 16 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £518,000 sits 113.2% above the 2003 sale of £243,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£105/sq ft) was about 43.5% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2005. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 1b is modelled from its 214 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in OL11 5HN. 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 1b. 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 1b was lodged in June 2021 at band E and is valid until June 2031. 6 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 1b. 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 22 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from OL11 5HN, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
1b is in council tax band E. 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.
