Overview

About The Hay Barn

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

The Hay Barn is a detached house in Earlswood, Solihull, Solihull (B94 5ES). It has a recorded floor area of 169 m² (around 1819 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (April 2015) shows an F (score 37), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on lpg. The latest certificate is from April 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 169 m² it's 18.2% larger than the typical home in the postcode (143 m² median across 9 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs).

Today's modelled estimate of £659,000 is 23.2% above the 2016 sale price.
