About 1 Oak Street
1 Oak Street is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Newhey, Rochdale, Rochdale (OL16 4JZ). It has a recorded floor area of 110 m² (around 1184 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since July 2013. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump.
