Overview

About 1 Gipsy Lane

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

1 Gipsy Lane is a two-bedroom detached house in Balsall Common, Coventry, Coventry (CV7 7FW). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2013) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £415,000 sits 50.9% above the 2014 sale of £275,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£323/sq ft) was about 65.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 79 m² it sits well below the postcode median (226 m² across 7 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 3 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in July 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
