Overview

About Apartment 26

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

Apartment 26 is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Balsall Common, Coventry, Coventry (CV7 7DQ). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 667 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 2003-2006. At 62 m² this is the 30th smallest of 34 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 35–74 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B across 34 units on file. Other recorded features include a balcony. The latest certificate (April 2021) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 81). Main heating runs on electricity.

Across 2006–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at -2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £164,000 is 38.8% below the 2007 sale of £267,950, a rare downward gap that often correlates with deferred maintenance or unfinished works. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£402/sq ft) was about 45.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. It hasn't traded since May 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.

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 Apartment 26 is modelled from its 62 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 Apartment 26. 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 Apartment 26 was lodged in April 2021 at band C and is valid until April 2031. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Apartment 26. 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.
