Overview

About 19 Friars Wharf

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

19 Friars Wharf is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Oxford (OX1 1RU). It has a recorded floor area of 46 m² (around 495 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band B. At 46 m² this is the 10th smallest of 52 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 35–98 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the top. Other recorded features include a balcony and notable views. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The latest certificate (December 2019) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 3 certificates since October 2008. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Average to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average.

Held since August 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £287,000 sits 55.1% above the 2009 sale of £185,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£374/sq ft) was about 28.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 46 m² it's 29.2% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (65 m² median across 51 EPCs).
