Overview

About 552a

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

552a is a four-bedroom detached house in Balsall Common, Coventry, Coventry (CV7 7DQ). It has a recorded floor area of 146 m² (around 1572 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007-2011 and council tax band F. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position. The latest certificate (April 2026) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since August 2010. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

Held since July 2011 — that's 15 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 146 m² the property is well over the postcode median (62 m² across 59 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.

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 552a is modelled from its 146 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CV7 7DQ. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 552a. 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 552a was lodged in April 2026 at band C and is valid until April 2036. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 552a. 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 7DQ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
552a is in council tax band F. 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.
