Overview

About Empress Court

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

Empress Court is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Oxford (OX1 1HG). It has a recorded floor area of 59 m² (around 635 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2019) returns a B (score 84), comfortably above the UK average. Main heating runs on electricity. At 59 m² this is the 26th smallest of 40 units on EPC record in Empress Court, where floor areas span 40–105 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the top. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include a balcony.

Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in June 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.
