About 3 Northampton Road

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

3 Northampton Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Oxford (OX1 4TG). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E.
