Overview

About 5 Cherwell Close

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

5 Cherwell Close is a two-bedroom detached house in Oldham (OL8 3TD). It has a recorded floor area of 67 m² (around 721 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2014) shows a C (score 80), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 94), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in May 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £231,000 sits 54% above the 2008 sale of £150,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£208/sq ft) was about 23.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 67 m² it's 26.4% larger than the typical home in the postcode (53 m² median across 15 EPCs).
