Get started43 Bowness Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Headington, Oxford, Oxford (OX3 0AL). It has a recorded floor area of 113 m² (around 1216 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows a C (score 71). When first surveyed in November 2008 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and window efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 84). The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal.
At 113 m² the property is well over the postcode median (56 m² across 12 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 83% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £691,000 sits 77.2% above the 2014 sale of £390,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£321/sq ft) was about 15.6% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in October 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
