Overview

About 5 Broad Close

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

5 Broad Close is a semi-detached house in Oxford (OX2 9DR). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 980 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since April 2015. Between certificates, lighting dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in March 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1998–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £421,000 sits 61.3% above the 2008 sale of £261,000. At 91 m² it's 16.2% larger than the typical home in the postcode (78 m² median across 4 EPCs). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2016.
