7 Abels Lane, Uppermill, Oldham, OL3 6ES

7 Abels Lane is a semi-detached house in Uppermill, Oldham, Oldham (OL3 6ES). It has a recorded floor area of 178 m² (around 1916 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2014) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since October 1995 — that's 31 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 178 m² the property is well over the postcode median (124 m² across 3 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £552,000 sits 294.3% above the 1995 sale of £140,000. One planning record on file: partial demolition approved in 2007. Past consents include partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
