8 Crown Gardens, Rochdale, OL16 5LG
About 8 Crown Gardens
8 Crown Gardens is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Rochdale (OL16 5LG). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 797 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 4 certificates since March 2010. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since June 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £162,000 sits 62% above the 2007 sale of £100,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£126/sq ft) was about 43.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
