Overview

About Cross Keys Cottage

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

Cross Keys Cottage is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Delph, Oldham, Oldham (OL3 5RQ). It has a recorded floor area of 171 m² (around 1841 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views. Period features are noted in the property record.

One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2025. Past consents include an extension and an annexe, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 171 m² it's 20.8% larger than the typical home in the postcode (142 m² median across 8 EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £470,000 is 46.9% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£174/sq ft) was about 34.2% below the postcode norm. Last sold in September 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.
