Overview

About 8 David Walter Close

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

8 David Walter Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Oxford (OX2 8NJ). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1012 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2012) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 94 m² the property is well over the postcode median (45 m² across 31 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 74% of similar EPCs). Across 2004–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £526,000 sits 50.3% above the 2015 sale of £350,000. On the market in February 2015 and unlisted since — roughly 11 years.
