How the estimate is made
The estimate for The Old Rectory is modelled from its 427 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in B79 0LD.

About The Old Rectory
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
The Old Rectory is a seven-bedroom detached house in Seckington, Tamworth, Tamworth (B79 0LD). It has a recorded floor area of 427 m² (around 4596 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Other recorded features include outbuildings and attached land beyond the plot. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (April 2022) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since March 2012. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while main heating dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil.
At 427 m² the property is well over the postcode median (78 m² across 9 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 7 planning records sit against the property, 7 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. Across 1997–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £1,612,000 is 39.6% above the 2022 sale price. Sold June 2022 for £1,155,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for The Old Rectory is modelled from its 427 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in B79 0LD. 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. 3 sales are recorded for The Old Rectory. 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 The Old Rectory was lodged in April 2022 at band E and is valid until April 2032. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 7 applications are matched to The Old Rectory. 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 1 school and 10 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B79 0LD, not by walking route.
- Council tax band
- The Old Rectory is in council tax band G. 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.
