Overview

About 9 Harpes Road

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

9 Harpes Road is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Oxford (OX2 7QJ). It has a recorded floor area of 108 m² (around 1163 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (November 2015) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since July 2014. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Average to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 2014–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 33.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £945,000 is 21.2% above the 2016 sale price.
