Overview

About 24 Cape Gardens

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

24 Cape Gardens is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Shaw, Oldham, Oldham (OL2 8PD). It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 775 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (October 2025) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since November 2008. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good and lighting went from Average to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 88). Other recorded features include a conservatory.

It hasn't traded since August 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. 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 £207,000 is 42.5% above the 2007 sale price.
