About 8 Lonsdale Avenue

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

8 Lonsdale Avenue is a semi-detached house in Rochdale (OL16 5HP). It has a recorded floor area of 125 m² (around 1345 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since April 2013. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 71).
