Overview

About 21 Summershades Lane

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

21 Summershades Lane is a three-bedroom detached house in Grasscroft, Oldham, Oldham (OL4 4ED). It has a recorded floor area of 139 m² (around 1496 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (April 2021) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since August 2010. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since May 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £440,000 sits 232.1% above the 1999 sale of £132,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£89/sq ft) was about 65.2% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2011. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
