31 Lea Road, Birmingham, B11 3LT

31 Lea Road is an end-of-terrace house in Birmingham (B11 3LT). It has a recorded floor area of 103 m² (around 1109 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B.

The latest certificate is from November 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since June 1998, a hold of 28 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 103 m² the property is well over the postcode median (78 m² across 26 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 85% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £200,000 sits 440.5% above the 1998 sale of £37,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£33/sq ft) was about 66.5% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
