Overview

About 5 Enfield Avenue

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

5 Enfield Avenue is a semi-detached house in Oldham (OL8 3DW). It has a recorded floor area of 66 m² (around 710 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (April 2014) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (November 2010); the latest reading is one band lower.

The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
