Overview

About 26 Foundry House

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

26 Foundry House is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Oxford (OX2 6AQ). It has a recorded floor area of 101 m² (around 1087 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band E. At 101 m² this is the 52nd smallest of 67 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 46–192 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B across 67 units on file. Other recorded features include notable views. The latest certificate (October 2019) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Main heating runs on electricity.

It hasn't traded since February 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 101 m² it's 27.8% larger than the typical home in the postcode (79 m² median across 66 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £709,000 sits 57.6% above the 2008 sale of £450,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£414/sq ft) was about 19.3% below the postcode norm.
