Overview

About Beechwood Cottage

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

Beechwood Cottage is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Berkswell, Coventry, Coventry (CV7 7BY). It has a recorded floor area of 114 m² (around 1227 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1930-1949. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since March 2015. Between certificates, lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 102), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include attached land beyond the plot. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

At 114 m² it sits well below the postcode median (266 m² across 4 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2020. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
