About 8 Albert Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
8 Albert Street is a mid-terrace house in Banbury (OX16 5DG). It has a recorded floor area of 108 m² (around 1163 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (August 2013) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in July 2013 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since June 1996 — that's 30 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 £199,000 sits 357.5% above the 1996 sale of £43,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£37/sq ft) was about 75.4% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: tree works approved in 2006. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 8 Albert Street is modelled from its 108 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in OX16 5DG. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 8 Albert Street. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 8 Albert Street was lodged in August 2013 at band E and expired in August 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 8 Albert Street. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 20 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from OX16 5DG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 8 Albert Street is in council tax band B. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
