Overview

About 78 Bridge Street

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

78 Bridge Street is a mid-terrace house in Oxford (OX2 0BD). It has a recorded floor area of 69 m² (around 746 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2009) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in December 2008 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Good to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 57). The latest certificate is from February 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since August 2003 — that's 23 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Today's modelled estimate of £480,000 sits 118.2% above the 2003 sale of £220,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2010. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
