2 Cedar Cottages is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Lapworth, Solihull, Solihull (B94 6AZ). It has a recorded floor area of 106 m² (around 1141 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2021) shows an F (score 37), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at F across 2 certificates since March 2016. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on lpg. Other recorded features include notable views and outbuildings. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2018. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 70% of similar EPCs). Across 1996–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £510,000 is 12.1% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£399/sq ft) was about 61.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Most recent transfer: October 2021 at £455,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
Recommended upgrades on file would lift this property by multiple EPC bands.
