Overview

About 17b

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

17b is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Grasscroft, Oldham, Oldham (OL4 4HH). It has a recorded floor area of 41 m² (around 441 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. At 41 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (41–310 m²). The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 11 units on file. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since October 2008. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in October 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £119,000 sits 105.2% above the 2008 sale of £58,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£131/sq ft) was about 45.4% below the postcode norm. At 41 m² it sits well below the postcode median (151 m² across 10 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.

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 17b is modelled from its 41 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in OL4 4HH. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 17b. 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 17b was lodged in June 2015 at band D and expired in June 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 17b. 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 16 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from OL4 4HH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
17b is in council tax band A. 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.
