About Walnut Tree Cottage
Walnut Tree Cottage is a four-bedroom detached house in Sutton Coldfield (B72 1JJ). It has a recorded floor area of 126 m² (around 1356 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (November 2008) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 66). The latest certificate is from November 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 16 years, with the last transfer in December 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £534,000 sits 58% above the 2009 sale of £338,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£249/sq ft) was about 25.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 126 m² it's 22.7% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (163 m² median across 7 EPCs).
