Overview

About 8 Clear Water Place

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

8 Clear Water Place is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Oxford (OX2 7NL). It has a recorded floor area of 100 m² (around 1076 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band E. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. At 100 m² this is the 35th smallest of 41 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 46–198 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (August 2021) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (December 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while main heating dropped from Average to Very Poor. Main heating runs on electricity.

It hasn't traded since July 2011, a hold of 15 years that's notably long for the area. At 100 m² the property is well over the postcode median (66 m² across 40 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 70% of similar EPCs). Across 2006–2011, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £559,000 is 11.8% above the 2011 sale price.

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 8 Clear Water Place is modelled from its 100 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in OX2 7NL. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 8 Clear Water 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 8 Clear Water Place was lodged in August 2021 at band D and is valid until August 2031. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 8 Clear Water 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 13 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from OX2 7NL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
8 Clear Water Place is in council tax band E. 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.
