Overview

About 17 Albert Street

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

17 Albert Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Whitworth, Rochdale, Rochdale (OL12 8PJ). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 806 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (February 2012) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 63). The latest certificate is from February 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since December 2007 — that's 18 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. Across 1999–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 17.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £128,000 is 25.5% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£127/sq ft) was about 38.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
