About 61 Wood Lane
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
61 Wood Lane is a five-bedroom detached house in Earlswood, Solihull, Solihull (B94 5JH). It has a recorded floor area of 280 m² (around 3014 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2015) returns a high B (score 86), putting the home a stone's throw from an A rating. When first surveyed in April 2009 the rating was G, the property has climbed 5 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good and window efficiency went from Poor to Very Good. The latest certificate is from May 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include attached land beyond the plot.
At 280 m² the property is well over the postcode median (124 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 71% of similar EPCs). 25 planning records sit against the property, 18 approved, 6 refused. Past consents include an extension, a porch and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in March 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years. Today's modelled estimate of £1,216,000 is 35.9% above the 2016 sale price.

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 61 Wood Lane is modelled from its 280 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in B94 5JH. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 61 Wood Lane. 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 61 Wood Lane was lodged in May 2015 at band B and expired in May 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. 25 applications are matched to 61 Wood Lane. 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 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 4 schools and 21 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B94 5JH, not by walking route.
- Council tax band
- 61 Wood Lane is in council tax band E. 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.
