About 6 Wharmton Rise
6 Wharmton Rise is a five-bedroom semi-detached house in Grasscroft, Oldham, Oldham (OL4 4ET). It has a recorded floor area of 149 m² (around 1603 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2009) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 66). The latest certificate is from May 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory and a basement.

Held since December 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales.
