Overview

About 16 Wharmton Rise

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

16 Wharmton Rise is a detached house in Grasscroft, Oldham, Oldham (OL4 4ET). It has a recorded floor area of 146 m² (around 1572 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (July 2012) returns a B (score 82), comfortably above the UK average. The latest certificate is from July 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since January 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.
