About 5 Cuckamus Lane
5 Cuckamus Lane is a four-bedroom detached house in North Leigh, Witney, Witney (OX29 6RR). It has a recorded floor area of 173 m² (around 1857 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (April 2009) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 57). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from April 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
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. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. 3 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused.
