Overview

About 38 Dewhirst Road

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

38 Dewhirst Road is a semi-detached house in Rochdale (OL12 0AR). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 893 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2014) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in May 2011 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). The latest certificate is from January 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 2000–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at -7.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £241,000 sits 1859.3% above the 2022 sale of £12,300. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£14/sq ft) was about 90.7% below the postcode norm. Most recent transfer: March 2022 at £12,300. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2022. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
