5 Palm Grove, Chadderton, Oldham, OL9 0DU

5 Palm Grove is a semi-detached house in Chadderton, Oldham, Oldham (OL9 0DU). It has a recorded floor area of 116 m² (around 1249 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (August 2014) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (March 2014); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since March 2010, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. At 116 m² the property is well over the postcode median (70 m² across 15 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £188,000 sits 108.9% above the 2010 sale of £90,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£72/sq ft) was about 43.4% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2013. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
