Overview

About 5 Chestnut Close

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

5 Chestnut Close is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Kingsbury, Tamworth, Tamworth (B78 2JA). It has a recorded floor area of 76 m² (around 818 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since January 2016. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor; while lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 76 m² it's 27.7% larger than the typical home in the postcode (60 m² median across 14 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £303,000 is 10.2% above the 2022 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£336/sq ft) was about 75.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sale on file: £275,000 in December 2022. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
