Overview

About 10 Benson Place

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

10 Benson Place is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Oxford (OX2 6QH). It has a recorded floor area of 98 m² (around 1049 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (November 2011) shows a C (score 72). When first surveyed in March 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The latest certificate is from November 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in May 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £724,000 sits 78% above the 2009 sale of £406,800. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£388/sq ft) was about 22.5% below the postcode norm. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2009.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 10 Benson Place is modelled from its 98 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in OX2 6QH. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
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 10 Benson Place. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 10 Benson Place was lodged in November 2011 at band C and expired in November 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 10 Benson Place. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 18 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from OX2 6QH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
10 Benson Place is in council tax band F. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
