Overview

About 3 Bismarck Street

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

3 Bismarck Street is an end-of-terrace house in Oldham (OL4 1AE). It has a recorded floor area of 106 m² (around 1141 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (December 2014) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since December 2013. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since July 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1997–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £141,000 is 17.5% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£105/sq ft) was about 381.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2015.
