About 18 Ridley Street
18 Ridley Street is an end-of-terrace house in Oldham (OL4 1DS). It has a recorded floor area of 70 m² (around 753 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (November 2015) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in January 2014 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since June 2004 — that's 22 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Across 1995–2004, sale prices on this property compounded at -2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £127,000 sits 535% above the 2004 sale of £20,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£27/sq ft) was about 211.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
