Overview

About 17 Challum Drive

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

17 Challum Drive is a detached house in Chadderton, Oldham, Oldham (OL9 0LY). It has a recorded floor area of 122 m² (around 1313 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (February 2014) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since March 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £401,000 sits 218.4% above the 1999 sale of £125,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£96/sq ft) was about 23.4% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 84% of similar EPCs).
