About 16 Melville Road

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

16 Melville Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Coventry (CV1 3AN). It has a recorded floor area of 122 m² (around 1313 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2024) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump.
