How the estimate is made
The estimate for 16 Oldham Road is modelled from its 122 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in OL3 5SL.

About 16 Oldham Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
16 Oldham Road is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Denshaw, Oldham, Oldham (OL3 5SL). It has a recorded floor area of 122 m² (around 1313 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 89), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 122 m² the property is well over the postcode median (84 m² across 10 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). Most recent transfer: February 2021 at £299,995. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. Across 1996–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £362,000 is 20.7% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£228/sq ft) was about 17.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 16 Oldham Road is modelled from its 122 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in OL3 5SL. 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. 4 sales are recorded for 16 Oldham Road. 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 16 Oldham Road was lodged in September 2014 at band E and expired in September 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. None is matched to 16 Oldham Road. 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 4 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from OL3 5SL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 16 Oldham Road 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.
