Overview

About Mercia House

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

Mercia House is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Coventry (CV1 1NQ). It has a recorded floor area of 47 m² (around 506 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (December 2013) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in January 2011 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and main heating went from Poor to Average; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from December 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 47 m² this is the 18th smallest of 48 units on EPC record in Mercia House, where floor areas span 31–49 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 48 units on file.

It hasn't traded since May 2011, a hold of 15 years that's notably long for the area. Across 2009–2011, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £117,000 sits 120.8% above the 2011 sale of £53,000. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2019.

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 Mercia House is modelled from its 47 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CV1 1NQ. 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 Mercia House. 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 Mercia House was lodged in December 2013 at band D and expired in December 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to Mercia House. 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 18 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 42 schools and 2 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CV1 1NQ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Mercia House is in council tax band A. 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.
