About 1 Brierley Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
1 Brierley Street is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Oldham (OL8 3DZ). It has a recorded floor area of 104 m² (around 1119 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (October 2015) shows an F (score 38), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it E (March 2011); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Average; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.
At 104 m² the property is well over the postcode median (78 m² across 36 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 2004–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at -1.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £124,000 sits 210% above the 2021 sale of £40,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£36/sq ft) was about 57.7% below the postcode norm. Sold March 2021 for £40,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

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 1 Brierley Street is modelled from its 104 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in OL8 3DZ. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 1 Brierley Street. 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 1 Brierley Street was lodged in October 2015 at band F and expired in October 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 5 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 1 Brierley Street. 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 50 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from OL8 3DZ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 1 Brierley Street is in council tax band A. 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.
