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 26.7% larger than the typical home in the postcode (60 m² median across 15 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 87% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £316,000 is 14.9% above the 2022 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£336/sq ft) was about 63.9% 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.

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 5 Chestnut Close is modelled from its 76 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in B78 2JA. 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 5 Chestnut Close. 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 5 Chestnut Close was lodged in May 2016 at band E and expired in May 2026, 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. None is matched to 5 Chestnut Close. 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 3 schools and 29 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B78 2JA, not by walking route.
Council tax band
5 Chestnut Close is in council tax band C. 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.
