About 81 Coventry Road
81 Coventry Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Kingsbury, Tamworth, Tamworth (B78 2LW). It has a recorded floor area of 282 m² (around 3035 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (October 2014) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (October 2008); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, main heating went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
At 282 m² the property is well over the postcode median (83 m² across 17 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2018. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2012–2023, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.4% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£138/sq ft) was about 25.5% below the postcode norm. Last sale on file: £420,000 in March 2023.
