Overview

About 8 Carey

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

8 Carey is a five-bedroom detached house in Hockley, Tamworth, Tamworth (B77 5QB). It has a recorded floor area of 139 m² (around 1496 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2015) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 139 m² the property is well over the postcode median (106 m² across 9 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £456,000 is 35.1% above the 2017 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£226/sq ft) was about 25.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in November 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years.
