Overview

About 16 Alvecote Cottages

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

16 Alvecote Cottages is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Alvecote, Tamworth, Tamworth (B79 0DJ). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 769 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (July 2010) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in January 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good, lighting went from Very Poor to Poor and main heating went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 66). The latest certificate is from July 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.

It hasn't traded since July 1997, a hold of 29 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £171,000 sits 322.2% above the 1997 sale of £40,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£53/sq ft) was about 57.4% below the postcode norm.

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 16 Alvecote Cottages is modelled from its 71 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in B79 0DJ. 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 16 Alvecote Cottages. 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 16 Alvecote Cottages was lodged in July 2010 at band E and expired in July 2020, 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 16 Alvecote Cottages. 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 18 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 12 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B79 0DJ, not by walking route.
Council tax band
16 Alvecote Cottages 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.
