About 9 Alexandra Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
9 Alexandra Road is a semi-detached house in Oldham (OL8 2BG). It has a recorded floor area of 678 m² (around 7298 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (October 2013) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 69).

At 678 m² the property is well over the postcode median (383 m² across 5 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £545,000 sits 948.1% above the 1997 sale of £52,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£7/sq ft) was about 70.7% below the postcode norm.

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 9 Alexandra Road is modelled from its 678 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in OL8 2BG. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 9 Alexandra 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 9 Alexandra Road was lodged in October 2013 at band D and expired in October 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 9 Alexandra 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 8 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 52 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from OL8 2BG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 9 Alexandra Road is in council tax band F. 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.
