About 7 Freeholds Terrace
7 Freeholds Terrace is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Shawforth, Rochdale, Rochdale (OL12 8HL). It has a recorded floor area of 57 m² (around 614 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. At 57 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (57–59 m²). The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since May 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £110,000 is 46.7% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£122/sq ft) was about 28.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
