Overview

About Thurston House

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

Thurston House is a detached house in Dobcross, Oldham, Oldham (OL3 5RG). It has a recorded floor area of 220 m² (around 2368 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (December 2014) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since October 2014. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from December 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 220 m² the property is well over the postcode median (82 m² across 4 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2006.
