About Hillcrest
Hillcrest is a three-bedroom detached house in Fillongley, Coventry, Coventry (CV7 8DD). It has a recorded floor area of 107 m² (around 1152 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band F. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (October 2014); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 107 m² the property is well over the postcode median (75 m² across 19 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2018. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £432,000 is 25.2% above the 2015 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£300/sq ft) was about 35.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in November 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.
