Overview

About 1 Rockley Cottage

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

1 Rockley Cottage is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Cumnor, Oxford, Oxford (OX2 9RA). It has a recorded floor area of 112 m² (around 1206 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2013) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from June 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
