Overview

About 8 King Street

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

8 King Street is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Delph, Oldham, Oldham (OL3 5DQ). It has a recorded floor area of 178 m² (around 1916 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2014) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since August 2008 — that's 18 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. At 178 m² the property is well over the postcode median (116 m² across 9 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £372,000 sits 73% above the 2008 sale of £215,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£112/sq ft) was about 16.7% below the postcode norm. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2008.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 8 King Street is modelled from its 178 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in OL3 5DQ. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 8 King Street. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 8 King Street was lodged in October 2014 at band E and expired in October 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 8 King Street. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 3 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 6 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from OL3 5DQ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
8 King Street is in council tax band D. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
