Overview

About 2 Fairview Cottage

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

2 Fairview Cottage is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Lapworth, Solihull, Solihull (B94 6LX). It has a recorded floor area of 61 m² (around 655 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (August 2009) shows a G (score 13), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to E (score 40), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from August 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a loft.

Held since July 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2024. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1997–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £409,000 is 23.9% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£504/sq ft) was about 85.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 2 Fairview Cottage is modelled from its 61 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in B94 6LX. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 2 Fairview Cottage. 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 2 Fairview Cottage was lodged in August 2009 at band G and expired in August 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 2 Fairview Cottage. 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 1 school and 13 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B94 6LX, not by walking route.
Council tax band
2 Fairview Cottage 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.
