Overview

About 1 Ashford Court

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

1 Ashford Court is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Oldham (OL4 2HE). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it B (February 2015); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Average; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £234,000 sits 69.6% above the 2006 sale of £138,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£164/sq ft) was about 286% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 1 Ashford Court is modelled from its 78 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in OL4 2HE. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 3 sales are recorded for 1 Ashford Court. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 1 Ashford Court was lodged in May 2016 at band D and expired in May 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 1 Ashford Court. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 5 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 35 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from OL4 2HE, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
1 Ashford Court is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
