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 £1,088,000 sits 70% 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.
