Overview

About 5 Piethorne Close

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

5 Piethorne Close is a semi-detached house in Newhey, Rochdale, Rochdale (OL16 3RH). It has a recorded floor area of 59 m² (around 635 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (December 2014) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in November 2011 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and window efficiency went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 88). The latest certificate is from December 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £183,000 sits 103.3% above the 2012 sale of £90,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£142/sq ft) was about 28.6% below the postcode norm. At 59 m² it's 20.2% larger than the typical home in the postcode (49 m² median across 21 EPCs). Last sold in December 2012, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.
