Overview

About 8 Grosvenor Road

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

8 Grosvenor Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Banbury (OX16 5HN). It has a recorded floor area of 85 m² (around 915 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (March 2024) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in October 2013 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Average to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

It hasn't traded since August 1995, a hold of 31 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. Today's modelled estimate of £249,000 sits 601.4% above the 1995 sale of £35,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£39/sq ft) was about 79.6% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: tree works approved in 2011. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
