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.

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.

Held since April 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm.

Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 1 Fern Cottage is modelled from its 146 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CV7 8DY. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 1 Fern Cottage. 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 Fern Cottage was lodged in January 2025 at band D and is valid until January 2035. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 1 Fern Cottage. 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 2 schools and 29 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CV7 8DY, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
1 Fern Cottage is in council tax band D. 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.
