Overview

About 3 Platt Lane

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

3 Platt Lane is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Dobcross, Oldham, Oldham (OL3 5AD). It has a recorded floor area of 76 m² (around 818 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (April 2024) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80).

Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in September 2008. 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 £292,000 is 48.2% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£241/sq ft) was about 16.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2008.
