Overview

About 17 French Avenue

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

17 French Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Mile Oak, Tamworth, Tamworth (B78 3PB). It has a recorded floor area of 137 m² (around 1475 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (July 2016) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

At 137 m² the property is well over the postcode median (71 m² across 32 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2001. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £259,000 is 48.9% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£118/sq ft) was about 21.7% below the postcode norm. 10 years since the last transfer (December 2016).

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 17 French Avenue is modelled from its 137 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in B78 3PB. 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 17 French Avenue. 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 17 French Avenue was lodged in July 2016 at band E and expired in July 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 17 French Avenue. 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 6 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B78 3PB, not by walking route.
Council tax band
17 French Avenue is in council tax band A. 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.
