Overview

About 9 Bower Avenue

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

9 Bower Avenue is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Rochdale (OL12 9QW). It has a recorded floor area of 57 m² (around 618 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2011) shows a C (score 72). The latest certificate is from July 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

It hasn't traded since January 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2001–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 14.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £175,000 sits 75.1% above the 2007 sale of £99,950. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2007. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
