Overview

About 5 Ashley Street

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

5 Ashley Street is a mid-terrace house in Oldham (OL9 6LS). It has a recorded floor area of 158 m² (around 1701 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (March 2017) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since December 2015. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since June 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 158 m² the property is well over the postcode median (101 m² across 25 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1997–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £138,000 sits 91.7% above the 2007 sale of £72,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£42/sq ft) was about 38% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
