Overview

About 2 The Croft

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

2 The Croft is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Drayton Bassett, Tamworth, Tamworth (B78 3TX). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 807 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2016) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in March 2010 the rating was G, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 107), a 4-band jump. The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Period features are noted in the property record.

Today's modelled estimate of £253,000 sits 94.6% above the 2012 sale of £130,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£161/sq ft) was about 27.8% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 75 m² it's 18.1% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (92 m² median across 9 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 78% of similar EPCs). On the market in January 2012 and unlisted since — roughly 15 years.

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 2 The Croft is modelled from its 75 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in B78 3TX. 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 2 The Croft. 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 2 The Croft was lodged in September 2016 at band E and expired in September 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. 2 applications are matched to 2 The Croft. 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 3TX, not by walking route.
Council tax band
2 The Croft 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.
