Overview

About Brimmycroft Barn

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

Brimmycroft Barn is a five-bedroom detached house in Denshaw, Oldham, Oldham (OL3 5UE). It has a recorded floor area of 360 m² (around 3875 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since May 2010. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good, lighting went from Very Poor to Poor and main heating went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since August 2010 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 360 m² the property is well over the postcode median (209 m² across 12 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1997–2010, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £1,058,000 sits 56.7% above the 2010 sale of £675,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£174/sq ft) was about 27.4% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: a garage conversion approved in 2022. Past consents include a garage conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for Brimmycroft Barn is modelled from its 360 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in OL3 5UE. 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. 2 sales are recorded for Brimmycroft Barn. 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 Brimmycroft Barn was lodged in September 2014 at band D and expired in September 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to Brimmycroft Barn. 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 5UE, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Brimmycroft Barn is in council tax band G. 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.
