Overview

About 3 Birch Grove

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

3 Birch Grove is a five-bedroom detached house in Balsall Common, Coventry, Coventry (CV7 7RS). It has a recorded floor area of 216 m² (around 2325 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 26 years, with the last transfer in November 2000. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 216 m² the property is well over the postcode median (116 m² across 8 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £765,000 sits 163.9% above the 2000 sale of £289,879. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£125/sq ft) was about 43.3% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2024. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
