About 1 Arthington Street
1 Arthington Street is an end-of-terrace house in Rochdale (OL16 2JT). It has a recorded floor area of 106 m² (around 1141 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since February 2015. Between certificates, lighting dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since May 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 106 m² the property is well over the postcode median (66 m² across 8 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £169,000 sits 1252% above the 1999 sale of £12,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£11/sq ft) was about 85.2% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
