About 18 Bridge Street
18 Bridge Street is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Shaw, Oldham, Oldham (OL2 8BG). It has a recorded floor area of 82 m² (around 883 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73).

Held since May 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm.
