Overview

About 14 Cross Street

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

14 Cross Street is an end-of-terrace house in Oxford (OX4 1DA). It has a recorded floor area of 49 m² (around 527 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (December 2019) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since September 2008. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and main heating dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 64). Main heating runs on electricity.

Across 1998–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £306,000 is 21.5% below the 2016 sale of £390,000, below the original sale price, which typically signals condition or completion-status changes worth verifying. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£739/sq ft) was about 96.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: subdivision approved in 2004. Past consents include subdivision, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 49 m² it's 22.8% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (64 m² median across 10 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). Last sold in April 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.
