Overview

About Cornwood House

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

Cornwood House is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Shirley, Solihull, Solihull (B90 1TH). It has a recorded floor area of 64 m² (around 689 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band C. At 64 m² this is the 19th smallest of 34 units on EPC record in Cornwood House, where floor areas span 53–81 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the bottom. Other recorded features include a balcony. The latest certificate (November 2012) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (December 2008); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from November 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 82% of similar EPCs). Across 2008–2018, sale prices on this property compounded at 2% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£262/sq ft) was about 19.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in May 2018, so it's been off the market for around 8 years.
