About 9 David Nicholls Close
9 David Nicholls Close is a detached house in Littlemore, Oxford, Oxford (OX4 4QX). It has a recorded floor area of 111 m² (around 1195 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since August 1996, a hold of 30 years that's notably long for the area. 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 £515,000 sits 325.6% above the 1996 sale of £120,995. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£101/sq ft) was about 59.4% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: tree works approved in 2021. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs).
