1 Babbacombe Road, Coventry, CV3 5PE

1 Babbacombe Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Coventry (CV3 5PE). It has a recorded floor area of 130 m² (around 1400 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (February 2009) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 56). The latest certificate is from February 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since July 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 1999–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £461,000 sits 70.7% above the 2009 sale of £270,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2022. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 130 m² it's 21.6% larger than the typical home in the postcode (107 m² median across 7 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs).
