About Greenacres
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Greenacres is a detached house in Elford, Tamworth, Tamworth (B79 9DB). It has a recorded floor area of 200 m² (around 2153 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (May 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 200 m² the property is well over the postcode median (138 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2019. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. On the market in September 2014 and unlisted since — roughly 12 years. Across 1997–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £714,000 is 34.7% above the 2014 sale price.

Start your researchHow to read this page
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 Greenacres is modelled from its 200 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in B79 9DB. 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. 2 sales are recorded for Greenacres. 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 Greenacres was lodged in June 2015 at band E and expired in June 2025, 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. 1 application is matched to Greenacres. 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 2 schools and 7 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B79 9DB, not by walking route.
- Council tax band
- Greenacres 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.
