8 Rosary Villas, Poplar Road, Sparkhill, Birmingham, B11 1UL

8 Rosary Villas is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Sparkhill, Birmingham, Birmingham (B11 1UL). It has a recorded floor area of 89 m² (around 958 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since November 2008, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £143,000 sits 65.3% above the 2008 sale of £86,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£90/sq ft) was about 20.7% below the postcode norm.
