About 187 Garforth Street
187 Garforth Street is a mid-terrace house in Chadderton, Oldham, Oldham (OL9 6RP). It has a recorded floor area of 45 m² (around 484 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (August 2015) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since August 2014. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since November 2000, a hold of 26 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 £119,000 sits 325% above the 2000 sale of £28,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£58/sq ft) was about 17.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 45 m² it sits well below the postcode median (80 m² across 24 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2016. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
