Get started24 Jack Straws Lane is a six-bedroom detached house in Headington, Oxford, Oxford (OX3 0DW). It has a recorded floor area of 226 m² (around 2437 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band H. There is a swimming pool on the plot, uncommon for the area. The latest certificate (January 2009) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The latest certificate is from January 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since September 1995, a hold of 31 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. 9 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 0 refused, 1 pending. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. An active application for tree works is awaiting a decision. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations. Today's modelled estimate of £1,818,000 sits 274.8% above the 1995 sale of £485,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£199/sq ft) was about 52.9% below the postcode norm. At 226 m² it's 29.9% larger than the typical home in the postcode (174 m² median across 25 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 76% of similar EPCs).
24 Jack Straws Lane's carbon output runs well above what efficient homes in the postcode produce.
