7 Hill Top Close is a five-bedroom semi-detached house in Southam (CV47 0LB). It has a recorded floor area of 120 m² (around 1292 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2015) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in February 2014 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good and roof efficiency went from Poor to Good; while main heating dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from November 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Last sold in April 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years. Today's modelled estimate of £384,000 is 39.1% above the 2016 sale price. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2004.
