About 8 Bishop Kirk Place
8 Bishop Kirk Place is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Oxford (OX2 7HJ). It has a recorded floor area of 174 m² (around 1873 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (December 2018) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. Other recorded features include a conservatory.
It hasn't traded since February 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 174 m² the property is well over the postcode median (94 m² across 22 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.

Today's modelled estimate of £1,148,000 sits 78% above the 2009 sale of £645,000.
