Overview

About 31 Apsley Road

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

31 Apsley Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Oxford (OX2 7QX). It has a recorded floor area of 156 m² (around 1679 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in December 2014 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good and hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Average; while lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £1,727,000 is 21.2% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£849/sq ft) was about 47.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. On the market in March 2016 and unlisted since — roughly 10 years.

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 31 Apsley Road is modelled from its 156 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in OX2 7QX. 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 31 Apsley Road. 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 31 Apsley Road was lodged in February 2016 at band D and expired in February 2026, 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. 2 applications are matched to 31 Apsley Road. 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 8 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from OX2 7QX, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
31 Apsley Road is in council tax band G. 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.
