Overview

About 17 Gatehead Croft

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

17 Gatehead Croft is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Delph, Oldham, Oldham (OL3 5QB). It has a recorded floor area of 117 m² (around 1259 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (November 2015) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (March 2011); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 117 m² the property is well over the postcode median (90 m² across 17 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs). Last changed hands 11 years ago, in November 2015.
