Overview

About 11 Bear Lane Close

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

11 Bear Lane Close is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Polesworth, Tamworth, Tamworth (B78 1BH). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 990 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £239,000 sits 83.8% above the 2015 sale of £130,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£131/sq ft) was about 29.3% below the postcode norm. At 92 m² it's 21.1% larger than the typical home in the postcode (76 m² median across 29 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 90% of similar EPCs). Last sold in May 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.
