About 10 Balfour Street
10 Balfour Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Oldham (OL4 1NR). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since March 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since July 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £123,000 sits 53.8% above the 2009 sale of £80,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£93/sq ft) was about 80.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
