Overview

About 17 St Albans Street

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

17 St Albans Street is an end-of-terrace house in Rochdale (OL16 1UT). It has a recorded floor area of 191 m² (around 2056 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows an F (score 37), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it E (June 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Average; while lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs). Across 2001–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £190,000 is 20.6% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£77/sq ft) was about 48.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold March 2021 for £157,500. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
