About Hillman House
Hillman House is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Coventry (CV1 1FZ). It has a recorded floor area of 95 m² (around 1023 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. At 95 m² this is the 24th smallest of 31 units on EPC record in Hillman House, where floor areas span 33–143 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 31 units on file. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The latest certificate (September 2013) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The latest certificate is from September 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 95 m² the property is well over the postcode median (53 m² across 30 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £117,000 is 30% above the 2022 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£88/sq ft) was about 19.8% below the postcode norm. Last sale on file: £90,000 in May 2022. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
