About 561 Oldham Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
561 Oldham Road is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Rochdale (OL16 4SU). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 801 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (March 2011) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 74). The latest certificate is from March 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.
It hasn't traded since March 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2001–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 35.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £118,000 sits 73.5% above the 2007 sale of £68,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£85/sq ft) was about 19.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 74 m² it's 28.3% larger than the typical home in the postcode (58 m² median across 25 EPCs). 1 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count.

Start your researchHow to read this page
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 561 Oldham Road is modelled from its 74 m² EPC floor area, its 5 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in OL16 4SU. 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. 5 sales are recorded for 561 Oldham Road. 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 561 Oldham Road was lodged in March 2011 at band D and expired in March 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 561 Oldham Road. 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 29 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from OL16 4SU, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 561 Oldham Road is in council tax band A. 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.
