About 1 Abingdon Road

1 Abingdon Road is a detached house in Standlake, Witney, Witney (OX29 7QH). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (July 2021) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 3 certificates since September 2016.

Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in July 2008. 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 £279,000 sits 99.3% above the 2008 sale of £140,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£178/sq ft) was about 34.2% below the postcode norm.
