Overview

About 17 Meadow Close

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

17 Meadow Close is a five-bedroom detached house in Farmoor, Oxford, Oxford (OX2 9PA). It has a recorded floor area of 159 m² (around 1711 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (July 2025) returns a B (score 83), comfortably above the UK average. When first surveyed in August 2012 the rating was D, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good.

It hasn't traded since February 2007, a hold of 19 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. At 159 m² it's 28.2% larger than the typical home in the postcode (124 m² median across 19 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Today's modelled estimate of £674,000 sits 92.6% above the 2007 sale of £349,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£204/sq ft) was about 25.1% below the postcode norm.
