Overview

About The Willows

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

The Willows is a four-bedroom detached house in Oldham (OL4 2LZ). It has a recorded floor area of 407 m² (around 4377 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1930-1949. The latest certificate (January 2011) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 57). The latest certificate is from January 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. 4 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1996–2017, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £797,000 is 38.6% above the 2017 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£131/sq ft) was about 33.2% 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 The Willows is modelled from its 407 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in OL4 2LZ. 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. 4 sales are recorded for The Willows. 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 The Willows was lodged in January 2011 at band E and expired in January 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 4 applications are matched to The Willows. 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 23 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from OL4 2LZ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
