About 5 Belfield Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
5 Belfield Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Rochdale (OL16 2XY). It has a recorded floor area of 131 m² (around 1408 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (January 2011) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (October 2008); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and main heating dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 131 m² the property is well over the postcode median (77 m² across 5 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 5 Belfield Close is modelled from its 131 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in OL16 2XY. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 5 Belfield Close. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 5 Belfield Close was lodged in January 2011 at band E and expired in January 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 2 applications are matched to 5 Belfield Close. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 5 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 31 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from OL16 2XY, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 5 Belfield Close is in council tax band B. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
