Overview

About 1 Fern Cottage

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

1 Fern Cottage is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Fillongley, Coventry, Coventry (CV7 8DY). It has a recorded floor area of 146 m² (around 1572 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (January 2025) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since August 2014. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and roof efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. Other recorded features include notable views and a conservatory. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Held since April 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2002–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £488,000 sits 61.1% above the 2008 sale of £303,000.
