About 143 Gainsborough Avenue

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

143 Gainsborough Avenue is a mid-terrace house in Oldham (OL8 1AL). It has a recorded floor area of 99 m² (around 1066 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
