Overview

About The Oaklands

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

The Oaklands is a four-bedroom detached house in Dordon, Tamworth, Tamworth (B78 1RR). It has a recorded floor area of 160 m² (around 1718 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (January 2012) returns a B (score 84), comfortably above the UK average. When first surveyed in July 2010 the rating was G, the property has climbed 5 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and window efficiency went from Good to Very Good. The latest certificate is from January 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since October 2010, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. At 160 m² the property is well over the postcode median (115 m² across 10 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. 12 planning records sit against the property, 11 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include a garage conversion and an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £458,000 is 32.8% above the 2010 sale price.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for The Oaklands is modelled from its 160 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in B78 1RR. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for The Oaklands. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for The Oaklands was lodged in January 2012 at band B and expired in January 2022, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 12 applications are matched to The Oaklands. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 5 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B78 1RR, not by walking route.
Council tax band
The Oaklands is in council tax band E. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
