About 16 Allens Orchard
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
16 Allens Orchard is a three-bedroom detached house in Chipping Warden, Banbury, Banbury (OX17 1LX). It has a recorded floor area of 131 m² (around 1410 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2026) shows a C (score 73). When first surveyed in May 2016 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. Other recorded features include outbuildings. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.
At 131 m² the property is well over the postcode median (90 m² across 12 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £456,000 sits 68.9% above the 2017 sale of £270,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£191/sq ft) was about 22.9% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2017. Past consents include an extension and a garage conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in April 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years.

- 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 16 Allens Orchard. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
