About 1 Dodgson Road
1 Dodgson Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Oxford (OX4 3QS). It has a recorded floor area of 81 m² (around 873 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2012) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The latest certificate is from February 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since May 2001 — that's 25 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £383,000 sits 181.6% above the 2001 sale of £136,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£156/sq ft) was about 39.8% below the postcode norm. 10 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 7 refused. Past consents include subdivision, change of use to residential and an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
