About 23 Chilswell Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
23 Chilswell Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Oxford (OX1 4PQ). It has a recorded floor area of 99 m² (around 1066 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (August 2019) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since June 2009. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump.
Held since November 1997 — that's 29 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £647,000 sits 331.3% above the 1997 sale of £150,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£141/sq ft) was about 53.9% below the postcode norm.
