Overview

About 5 Bates Close

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

5 Bates Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Sutton Coldfield (B76 1TL). It has a recorded floor area of 161 m² (around 1733 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it C (October 2014); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 161 m² the property is well over the postcode median (56 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2002. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2015–2023, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.3% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£209/sq ft) was about 31.1% below the postcode norm. Sold September 2023 for £363,000.
