Overview

About 16 Chestnut Road

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

16 Chestnut Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Oxford (OX2 9EA). It has a recorded floor area of 87 m² (around 936 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2013) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.
