Overview

About 3 Station Road

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

3 Station Road is a two-bedroom detached house in Grotton, Oldham, Oldham (OL4 5SF). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 700 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2026) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since January 2009. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Poor; while window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

Across 2001–2013, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £229,000 sits 110.1% above the 2013 sale of £109,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£156/sq ft) was about 26.9% below the postcode norm. At 65 m² it sits well below the postcode median (96 m² across 13 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 3 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in January 2013, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.

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 3 Station Road is modelled from its 65 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in OL4 5SF. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 3 Station Road. 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 3 Station Road was lodged in April 2026 at band D and is valid until April 2036. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 3 applications are matched to 3 Station Road. 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 28 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from OL4 5SF, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
3 Station Road is in council tax band C. 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.
