Overview

About 8 Grotton Hollow

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

8 Grotton Hollow is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Grotton, Oldham, Oldham (OL4 4LN). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 922 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows a C (score 70). The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since June 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £256,000 sits 55.2% above the 2009 sale of £165,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2014. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 86 m² it's 17.2% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (104 m² median across 10 EPCs). Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 70% of similar EPCs).
