About 2a
2a is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Chadderton, Oldham, Oldham (OL9 8QQ). It has a recorded floor area of 120 m² (around 1292 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2024) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in September 2013 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Average to Good, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 84). Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe. It has already been extended once and our model flags further extension potential, a sign of buyer flexibility.
At 120 m² the property is well over the postcode median (71 m² across 6 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 83% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £288,000 sits 140% above the 2016 sale of £120,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£93/sq ft) was about 32.2% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2004. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in February 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.
