8 Grants Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Fenny Compton, Southam, Southam (CV47 2YA). It has a recorded floor area of 111 m² (around 1195 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2014) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from April 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views and outbuildings.
Held since June 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 111 m² the property is well over the postcode median (85 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £309,000 sits 71.7% above the 2008 sale of £180,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£151/sq ft) was about 40.8% below the postcode norm. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2010.
