About 8 Church Close

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

8 Church Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Drayton Bassett, Tamworth, Tamworth (B78 3UJ). It has a recorded floor area of 95 m² (around 1025 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2012) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (September 2011); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Average; while wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average.

Across 2001–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at 14.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £259,000 sits 72.7% above the 2012 sale of £150,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2021. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs). On the market in May 2012 and unlisted since — roughly 14 years.
