Overview

About 13 Lovers Lane

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

13 Lovers Lane is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Grasscroft, Oldham, Oldham (OL4 4DP). It has a recorded floor area of 143 m² (around 1539 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The latest certificate (October 2013) shows a C (score 74). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 82). The latest certificate is from October 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 143 m² the property is well over the postcode median (69 m² across 22 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 4 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2009. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2009–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £472,000 is 21% above the 2021 sale price. Sold March 2021 for £390,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

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 13 Lovers Lane is modelled from its 143 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in OL4 4DP. 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 13 Lovers Lane. 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 13 Lovers Lane was lodged in October 2013 at band C and expired in October 2023, 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. 1 application is matched to 13 Lovers Lane. 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 21 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from OL4 4DP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
13 Lovers Lane is in council tax band D. 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.
