Overview

About 51 Butterworth Way

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

51 Butterworth Way is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Greenfield, Oldham, Oldham (OL3 7PS). It has a recorded floor area of 53 m² (around 570 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band C. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. At 53 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 25 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 52–126 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (October 2014); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and main heating dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 69). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Most recent transfer: April 2022 at £215,000. 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 2004–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.2% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£377/sq ft) was about 58.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
