Overview

About 8 Stretton Road

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

8 Stretton Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Wolston, Coventry, Coventry (CV8 3FR). It has a recorded floor area of 64 m² (around 689 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in November 2008 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Very Good, window efficiency went from Average to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 89), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
