Overview

About 3 Kingsbury

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

3 Kingsbury is a detached house in St. Martins, Oswestry, Oswestry (SY11 3BX). It has a recorded floor area of 128 m² (around 1378 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows an F (score 36), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it E (October 2008); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Average, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and window efficiency went from Poor to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and main heating dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 92), a 5-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 23 years, with the last transfer in June 2003. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £372,000 sits 118.8% above the 2003 sale of £170,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£123/sq ft) was about 22.2% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2005. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
