Overview

About 1 Austin Drive

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

1 Austin Drive is a semi-detached house in Banbury (OX16 1DL). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2013) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
