Overview

About 16 Kingswood Close

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

16 Kingswood Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Lapworth, Solihull, Solihull (B94 6JQ). It has a recorded floor area of 116 m² (around 1249 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2023) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 68). Main heating runs on oil.

It hasn't traded since November 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £525,000 sits 84.2% above the 2007 sale of £285,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2013. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 74% of similar EPCs).
