About 1 Darlaston Cottages
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
1 Darlaston Cottages is an end-of-terrace house in Meriden, Coventry, Coventry (CV7 7LN). It has a recorded floor area of 139 m² (around 1499 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (November 2011) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 69). The latest certificate is from November 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 139 m² the property is well over the postcode median (70 m² across 18 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1995–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £470,000 sits 70.9% above the 2012 sale of £275,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£184/sq ft) was about 27.8% below the postcode norm. Last sold in September 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years. Across the public record there are 6 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2008. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 1 Darlaston Cottages is modelled from its 139 m² EPC floor area, its 6 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CV7 7LN. 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. 6 sales are recorded for 1 Darlaston Cottages. 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 1 Darlaston Cottages was lodged in November 2011 at band D and expired in November 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 1 Darlaston Cottages. 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 1 school and 1 stop listed are measured in a straight line from CV7 7LN, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 1 Darlaston Cottages is in council tax band E. 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.
