About 23a
23a is a detached house in Cumnor, Oxford, Oxford (OX2 9PE). It has a recorded floor area of 149 m² (around 1606 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (November 2008) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 74).

It hasn't traded since July 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 149 m² the property is well over the postcode median (103 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2003–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £746,000 sits 78.9% above the 2009 sale of £417,000.
