About 22 Columbine Gardens
22 Columbine Gardens is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Oxford (OX4 7LH). It has a recorded floor area of 55 m² (around 592 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2022) shows a C (score 71). When first surveyed in March 2012 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 86). Other recorded features include a conservatory.
It hasn't traded since September 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1995–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £310,000 sits 68.5% above the 2008 sale of £184,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£311/sq ft) was about 84.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2009. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
