Overview

About 4 Carey Close

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

4 Carey Close is a three-bedroom detached house in Oxford (OX2 8HX). It has a recorded floor area of 129 m² (around 1389 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (May 2014) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £821,000 sits 229.7% above the 2000 sale of £249,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£179/sq ft) was about 26.9% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 0 refused.
