1 Aden Street, Oldham, OL4 5JA

1 Aden Street is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Oldham (OL4 5JA). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 700 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (September 2013) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in August 2013 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and lighting went from Very Poor to Poor; while window efficiency dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Held since November 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2002–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 18.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £138,000 is 48.4% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£133/sq ft) was about 33.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
