Overview

About 1 Chatham Road

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

1 Chatham Road is a semi-detached house in Oxford (OX1 4UZ). It has a recorded floor area of 81 m² (around 872 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2013) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in July 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, window efficiency went from Poor to Average and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since May 2010, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. Today's modelled estimate of £421,000 sits 76.9% above the 2010 sale of £237,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£273/sq ft) was about 34.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 76% of similar EPCs).
