About 25 Elgin Road

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

25 Elgin Road is a mid-terrace house in Oldham (OL4 1QQ). It has a recorded floor area of 109 m² (around 1173 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since October 2015. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). The latest certificate is from January 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £144,000 sits 620% above the 2003 sale of £20,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£17/sq ft) was about 32.7% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2007. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
