About 12 Crib Fold
12 Crib Fold is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Dobcross, Oldham, Oldham (OL3 5AT). It has a recorded floor area of 133 m² (around 1426 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (January 2009) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). The latest certificate is from January 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
Held since February 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £371,000 sits 51.4% above the 2009 sale of £245,000. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
