Overview

About 20 Beech Lane

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

20 Beech Lane is a semi-detached house in Grasscroft, Oldham, Oldham (OL4 4EP). It has a recorded floor area of 117 m² (around 1254 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2011) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The latest certificate is from May 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £468,000 sits 73.4% above the 2012 sale of £269,950. At 117 m² it sits well below the postcode median (202 m² across 14 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 71% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2022. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in July 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.
