Overview

About 5 Sunnybank

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

5 Sunnybank is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Coventry (CV1 4AZ). It has a recorded floor area of 82 m² (around 883 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (October 2023) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in March 2016 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 89), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since April 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £171,000 sits 113.8% above the 2007 sale of £80,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£91/sq ft) was about 21.6% below the postcode norm.
