About 23 Cornwallis Road
23 Cornwallis Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Oxford (OX4 3NP). It has a recorded floor area of 57 m² (around 614 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2012) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record. The home occupies a corner plot.
Across 2004–2013, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £387,000 sits 61.1% above the 2013 sale of £240,200. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£391/sq ft) was about 48% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2021. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in January 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years. At 57 m² it's 24% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (75 m² median across 17 EPCs).
