7 Bench Carr, Rochdale, OL12 0QU
About 7 Bench Carr
7 Bench Carr is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Rochdale (OL12 0QU). It has a recorded floor area of 103 m² (around 1104 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2010) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 103 m² the property is well over the postcode median (69 m² across 14 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 79% of similar EPCs). Across 1996–2013, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £209,000 sits 74.2% above the 2013 sale of £120,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£109/sq ft) was about 30.5% below the postcode norm. 3 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in September 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.
