Overview

About 17 Grains Road

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

17 Grains Road is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Delph, Oldham, Oldham (OL3 5DS). It has a recorded floor area of 120 m² (around 1292 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2013) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 120 m² the property is well over the postcode median (84 m² across 30 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £360,000 sits 53.2% above the 2015 sale of £235,000. Last sold in April 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.
