1 Burton Close, Tamworth, B79 8UB
About 1 Burton Close
1 Burton Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Tamworth (B79 8UB). It has a recorded floor area of 122 m² (around 1313 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2024) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 81). Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a corner plot.
It hasn't traded since February 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 122 m² the property is well over the postcode median (83 m² across 24 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £382,000 sits 80.2% above the 2008 sale of £212,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£161/sq ft) was about 22.2% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2014. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
