About 24 Costar Close
24 Costar Close is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Littlemore, Oxford, Oxford (OX4 6JX). It has a recorded floor area of 31 m² (around 334 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band A. At 31 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (31–63 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to B across 19 units on file. Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The latest certificate (November 2015) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in October 2010 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good and main heating went from Poor to Average; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from November 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 31 m² it sits well below the postcode median (53 m² across 18 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Today's modelled estimate of £168,000 is 20% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£420/sq ft) was about 59.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in April 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.
