Overview

About 13 Charles Lakin Close

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

13 Charles Lakin Close is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Shilton, Coventry, Coventry (CV7 9LB). It has a recorded floor area of 111 m² (around 1195 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2024) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in May 2015 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since.

At 111 m² the property is well over the postcode median (84 m² across 25 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 72% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £331,000 sits 97% above the 2015 sale of £168,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£141/sq ft) was about 20.8% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2015. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in June 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.
