About 5 Bar Terrace
5 Bar Terrace is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Whitworth, Rochdale, Rochdale (OL12 8TB). It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 775 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (August 2017) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 90), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on lpg. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
It hasn't traded since April 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 83% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £141,000 is 29.4% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£141/sq ft) was about 26.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
