Overview

About 8 Grendon Avenue

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

8 Grendon Avenue is a mid-terrace house in Oldham (OL8 4HT). It has a recorded floor area of 117 m² (around 1259 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (September 2015) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (November 2014); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since October 2002, a hold of 24 years that's notably long for the area. Today's modelled estimate of £196,000 sits 292% above the 2002 sale of £50,000. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 70% of similar EPCs).
