Overview

About 48 Old Kiln Lane

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

48 Old Kiln Lane is a four-bedroom detached house in Grotton, Oldham, Oldham (OL4 5RZ). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 980 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band D. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (November 2013) 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 May 2010. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory and a basement.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£368/sq ft) was about 179.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 91 m² it's 25.4% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (122 m² median across 34 EPCs). Last sale on file: £360,000 in December 2022. 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 48 Old Kiln Lane is modelled from its 91 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in OL4 5RZ. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 48 Old Kiln Lane. 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 48 Old Kiln Lane was lodged in November 2013 at band D and expired in November 2023, 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 48 Old Kiln Lane. 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 26 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from OL4 5RZ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
48 Old Kiln Lane is in council tax band D. 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.
