Overview

About 5 Faulkner Street

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

5 Faulkner Street is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Oxford (OX1 1UA). It has a recorded floor area of 127 m² (around 1367 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2019) shows a C (score 74). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 84).

It hasn't traded since March 2008, a hold of 18 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 127 m² the property is well over the postcode median (80 m² across 37 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £505,000 sits 74.1% above the 2008 sale of £290,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£212/sq ft) was about 15.3% below the postcode norm. 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include HMO conversion and an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
