Overview

About 5 Grasmere Road

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

5 Grasmere Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Oldham (OL4 1NG). It has a recorded floor area of 89 m² (around 958 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (July 2016) shows an F (score 32), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it E (April 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
