Overview

About 5 Compton Drive

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

5 Compton Drive is a three-bedroom detached house in Sutton Coldfield (B74 2DA). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (January 2014) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 78 m² the property is well over the postcode median (44 m² across 22 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £323,000 sits 53.8% above the 2016 sale of £210,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£250/sq ft) was about 40.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in May 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.
