About 51 Kenilworth Road
51 Kenilworth Road is a five-bedroom detached house in Coventry (CV4 7AF). It has a recorded floor area of 220 m² (around 2368 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since October 2008. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70).

The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
At 220 m² it sits well below the postcode median (337 m² across 9 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 4 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 0 refused.
