Overview

About Tumbledown Cottage

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

Tumbledown Cottage is a semi-detached house in Filchampstead, Oxford, Oxford (OX2 9NT). It has a recorded floor area of 187 m² (around 2013 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (September 2025) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 64). Main heating runs on electricity.

It hasn't traded since March 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £632,000 sits 351.4% above the 2008 sale of £140,000.
