Local market context
Celandine Cottage is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Great Bourton, Banbury, Banbury (OX17 1QT). It has a recorded floor area of 107 m² (around 1152 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2025) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). Main heating runs on oil.
It hasn't traded since November 2006, a hold of 20 years that's notably long for the area. Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. At 107 m² the property is well over the postcode median (68 m² across 10 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 70% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2004. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1995–2006, sale prices on this property compounded at 13.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £403,000 is 49.3% above the 2006 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£234/sq ft) was about 44.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
