About 26 Gainsborough Avenue
26 Gainsborough Avenue is a mid-terrace house in Oldham (OL8 1AH). It has a recorded floor area of 114 m² (around 1227 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (May 2013) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since November 1998, a hold of 28 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £144,000 sits 443.4% above the 1998 sale of £26,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£22/sq ft) was about 27.6% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: a loft conversion approved in 2010. Past consents include a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 114 m² it's 20% larger than the typical home in the postcode (95 m² median across 37 EPCs).
