About 41 Sandford Lane
41 Sandford Lane is a four-bedroom detached house in Kennington, Oxford, Oxford (OX1 5RW). It has a recorded floor area of 171 m² (around 1841 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (October 2015) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). The latest certificate is from October 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since August 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 171 m² the property is well over the postcode median (125 m² across 12 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £688,000 sits 254.6% above the 1999 sale of £194,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£105/sq ft) was about 68.2% below the postcode norm.
