About 13 Crown Street
13 Crown Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Rochdale (OL16 5LQ). It has a recorded floor area of 59 m² (around 635 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (May 2026) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 5 certificates since September 2014. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
Held since August 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. Across 2005–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £129,000 sits 62.3% above the 2007 sale of £79,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£125/sq ft) was about 44.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
