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

Lilac Cottage is a three-bedroom detached house in Lapworth, Solihull, Solihull (B94 6AP). It has a recorded floor area of 121 m² (around 1307 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (June 2009) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Main heating runs on oil.

3 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1995–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £883,000 is 32.4% above the 2015 sale price.
