Overview

About Lydgate Fold

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

Lydgate Fold is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Lydgate, Oldham, Oldham (OL4 4JL). It has a recorded floor area of 56 m² (around 603 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Period features are noted in the property record. At 56 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 10 units on EPC record in Lydgate Fold, where floor areas span 49–122 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B across 10 units on file. The latest certificate (April 2022) shows a C (score 73). The rating has held steady at C across 3 certificates since October 2008. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Average to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and main heating dropped from Poor to Very Poor. Main heating runs on electricity.

At 56 m² it sits well below the postcode median (89 m² across 20 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: new windows approved in 2018. Past consents include new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1995–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.9% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£272/sq ft) was about 91.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold July 2022 for £164,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

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 Lydgate Fold is modelled from its 56 m² EPC floor area, its 5 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in OL4 4JL. 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. 5 sales are recorded for Lydgate Fold. 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 Lydgate Fold was lodged in April 2022 at band C and is valid until April 2032. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to Lydgate Fold. 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 22 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from OL4 4JL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Lydgate Fold is in council tax band B. 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.
