Overview

About 49 Grafton Street

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

49 Grafton Street is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Coventry (CV1 2HX). It has a recorded floor area of 76 m² (around 818 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (August 2021) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in July 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, window efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Held since December 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. Across 2006–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 0.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £178,000 sits 69.5% above the 2009 sale of £105,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£128/sq ft) was about 35.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 76 m² it's 15.1% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (90 m² median across 40 EPCs).
