Overview

About 12 Speedwell Drive

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

12 Speedwell Drive is a three-bedroom detached house in Balsall Common, Coventry, Coventry (CV7 7AU). It has a recorded floor area of 96 m² (around 1033 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

It hasn't traded since October 1997, a hold of 29 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £491,000 sits 250.8% above the 1997 sale of £139,950. At 96 m² it sits well below the postcode median (181 m² across 11 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
