Flat 3, 11 Stanley Road, Oxford, OX4 1QY
About Flat 3
Flat 3 is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Oxford (OX4 1QY). It has a recorded floor area of 57 m² (around 614 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. Tenure is freehold. At 57 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (57–67 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to D, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (43 versus a best of 68). The latest certificate (May 2012) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on lpg. The latest certificate is from May 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 78% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £295,000 is 16.1% above the 2022 sale price. Sold January 2022 for £254,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
