Overview

About 4 Bennett Crescent

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

4 Bennett Crescent is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Cowley, Oxford, Oxford (OX4 2UN). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 669 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band D. At 62 m² this is the 17th smallest of 34 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 50–70 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (November 2008) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. The latest certificate is from November 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since March 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2001–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at -1.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £282,000 sits 124.9% above the 2009 sale of £125,400. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£188/sq ft) was about 33.3% below the postcode norm.
