Overview

About 22 Ambrose Crescent

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

22 Ambrose Crescent is a semi-detached house in Diggle, Oldham, Oldham (OL3 5XG). It has a recorded floor area of 53 m² (around 570 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since June 2006 — that's 20 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Today's modelled estimate of £281,000 sits 134.2% above the 2006 sale of £120,000. At 53 m² it sits well below the postcode median (106 m² across 13 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2008.
