4 Beatty Drive, Rugby, CV22 7ET

4 Beatty Drive is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Rugby (CV22 7ET). It has a recorded floor area of 87 m² (around 936 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2014) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since October 2008. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since December 2008, a hold of 17 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. At 87 m² the property is well over the postcode median (60 m² across 19 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2007–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at -2.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £226,000 sits 66.2% above the 2008 sale of £136,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£145/sq ft) was about 20.2% below the postcode norm.
