About 51 Oxford Avenue
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
51 Oxford Avenue is a mid-terrace house in Southampton (SO14 0BN). It has a recorded floor area of 129 m² (around 1389 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2013) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. Earlier certificates rated it C (February 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 70% of similar EPCs). Across 1996–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £241,000 is 30.3% above the 2015 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£133/sq ft) was about 27% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in December 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 51 Oxford Avenue is modelled from its 129 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in SO14 0BN. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 3 sales are recorded for 51 Oxford Avenue. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 51 Oxford Avenue was lodged in July 2013 at band D and expired in July 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 51 Oxford Avenue. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 19 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 36 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SO14 0BN, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 51 Oxford Avenue is in council tax band B. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
