About 5 Hilton Drive
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
5 Hilton Drive is a four-bedroom detached house in Sutton Coldfield (B72 1EQ). It has a recorded floor area of 110 m² (around 1184 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2014) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since May 2010. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). The latest certificate is from May 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.
Across 2003–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £473,000 sits 52.6% above the 2015 sale of £310,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£262/sq ft) was about 38.1% below the postcode norm. Last sold in January 2015, so it's been off the market for around 12 years. Across the public record there are 6 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2003. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

Start your researchHow to read this page
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 5 Hilton Drive is modelled from its 110 m² EPC floor area, its 6 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in B72 1EQ. 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. 6 sales are recorded for 5 Hilton Drive. 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 5 Hilton Drive was lodged in May 2014 at band D and expired in May 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 5 Hilton Drive. 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 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 31 schools and 4 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B72 1EQ, not by walking route.
- Council tax band
- 5 Hilton Drive is in council tax band E. 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.
