Overview

About 47 48

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

47 48 is an end-of-terrace house in Oxford (OX1 2LQ). It has a recorded floor area of 22 m² (around 237 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. At 22 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across 47 48 (22–88 m²). The latest certificate (January 2026) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 10 certificates since June 2013. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75). This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

At 22 m² it sits well below the postcode median (189 m² across 14 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: solar panel installation refused in 2019.
