Overview

About 26 Market Street

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

26 Market Street is an end-of-terrace house in Shawforth, Rochdale, Rochdale (OL12 8ND). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 990 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (November 2012) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 28 years, with the last transfer in December 1998. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £127,000 sits 328.3% above the 1998 sale of £29,650. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£30/sq ft) was about 62.5% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 72% of similar EPCs).
