About 8 Canal View
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
8 Canal View is a five-bedroom semi-detached house in Coventry (CV1 4LQ). It has a recorded floor area of 178 m² (around 1916 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 2012-2021. The latest certificate (August 2025) returns a high B (score 85), putting the home a stone's throw from an A rating. The rating has held steady at B across 2 certificates since June 2015. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and window efficiency dropped from Very Good to Average.

One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2016. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £372,000 is 35.3% above the 2015 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£144/sq ft) was about 26% below the postcode norm.
