Overview

About 53 Upland Road

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

53 Upland Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Oldham (OL8 1BA). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (February 2015) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (September 2010); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Average; while wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
