Overview

About 2 Cardigan Road

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

2 Cardigan Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Oldham (OL8 4SF). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (April 2015) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since April 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. 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 £152,000 sits 74.7% above the 2007 sale of £87,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£94/sq ft) was about 37.7% below the postcode norm.
