About 5 Cheviot Avenue
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
5 Cheviot Avenue is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Oldham (OL8 4HB). It has a recorded floor area of 117 m² (around 1259 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include a loft. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The latest certificate (July 2012) shows a C (score 74). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 85). The latest certificate is from July 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 117 m² the property is well over the postcode median (87 m² across 14 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £201,000 sits 57.6% above the 2015 sale of £127,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£101/sq ft) was about 16.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in November 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.

Start your researchHow to read this page
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 5 Cheviot Avenue is modelled from its 117 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in OL8 4HB. 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 5 Cheviot Avenue. 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 5 Cheviot Avenue was lodged in July 2012 at band C and expired in July 2022, 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. 2 applications are matched to 5 Cheviot Avenue. 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 49 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from OL8 4HB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 5 Cheviot Avenue is in council tax band B. 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.
