About 18 Ambleside Drive
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
18 Ambleside Drive is a four-bedroom detached house in Headington, Oxford, Oxford (OX3 0AG). It has a recorded floor area of 140 m² (around 1507 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E.

Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and window efficiency went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
