Overview

About 49 Monastery Drive

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

49 Monastery Drive is a four-bedroom detached house in Solihull (B91 1DW). It has a recorded floor area of 177 m² (around 1905 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since September 2013. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Poor to Average, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

At 177 m² the property is well over the postcode median (118 m² across 20 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2003.

Across 2002–2017, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £738,000 is 27.2% above the 2017 sale price.

How the estimate is made
The estimate for 49 Monastery Drive is modelled from its 177 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in B91 1DW. 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 49 Monastery Drive. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC

Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 49 Monastery Drive. 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 42 schools and 5 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B91 1DW, not by walking route.
Council tax band
49 Monastery Drive is in council tax band F. 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.
