About 23 Grasmere Street
23 Grasmere Street is a semi-detached house in Rochdale (OL12 0RW). It has a recorded floor area of 68 m² (around 732 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (November 2016) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (July 2016); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump.
It hasn't traded since May 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 81% of similar EPCs). Across 2001–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 21.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £127,000 is 35.1% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£128/sq ft) was about 60.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
