Overview

About 4 Hawthorn Drive

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

4 Hawthorn Drive is a five-bedroom detached house in Balsall Common, Coventry, Coventry (CV7 7BF). It has a recorded floor area of 292 m² (around 3143 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (June 2025) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Held since April 2007 — that's 19 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 292 m² the property is well over the postcode median (210 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2003–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 1.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £1,169,000 sits 82.7% above the 2007 sale of £640,000. One planning record on file: tree works approved in 2012. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 4 Hawthorn Drive is modelled from its 292 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CV7 7BF. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 3 sales are recorded for 4 Hawthorn Drive. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 4 Hawthorn Drive was lodged in June 2025 at band C and is valid until June 2035. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 4 Hawthorn Drive. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 3 schools and 1 stop listed are measured in a straight line from CV7 7BF, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
4 Hawthorn Drive is in council tax band G. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
