Overview

About 1 Piethorne Close

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

1 Piethorne Close is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Newhey, Rochdale, Rochdale (OL16 3RH). It has a recorded floor area of 67 m² (around 721 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in September 2013 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

At 67 m² the property is well over the postcode median (49 m² across 21 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 76% of similar EPCs). Across 2013–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 60.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £224,000 sits 72.3% above the 2014 sale of £130,000. Last sold in November 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
