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 49 m² (around 524 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band B. At 49 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across Lydgate Fold (49–122 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to B, with this unit at the top. On EPC score it ranks first in the building (83 versus a worst of 39). The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. The latest certificate (October 2009) returns a B (score 83), comfortably above the UK average. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from October 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 49 m² it sits well below the postcode median (89 m² across 20 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. On the market in February 2017 and unlisted since — roughly 9 years. Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
How the estimate is made
The estimate for Lydgate Fold is modelled from its 49 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 October 2009 at band B and expired in October 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None 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.
