Overview

About 28 Oswald Road

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

28 Oswald Road is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Oswestry (SY11 1RE). It has a recorded floor area of 15 m² (around 161 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. Tenure is freehold. At 15 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (15–88 m²). The building's EPC ratings span D to B across 34 units on file. The latest certificate (March 2022) shows a C (score 71). When first surveyed in August 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average and main heating dropped from Good to Average. Main heating runs on electricity.

Today's modelled estimate of £122,000 is 59.3% below the 2022 sale of £300,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. At 15 m² it sits well below the postcode median (40 m² across 33 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Last sale on file: £300,000 in April 2022. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
