Overview

About 17 Market Street

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

17 Market Street is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Shawforth, Rochdale, Rochdale (OL12 8ND). It has a recorded floor area of 41 m² (around 441 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (December 2014) shows an F (score 25), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 4-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from December 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since October 2004, a hold of 22 years that's notably long for the area. At 41 m² it sits well below the postcode median (92 m² across 25 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. 1 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £111,000 sits 141.3% above the 2004 sale of £46,000.
