44 Castleford Road, Birmingham, B11 3SL

44 Castleford Road is a mid-terrace house in Birmingham (B11 3SL). It has a recorded floor area of 172 m² (around 1851 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2013) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since January 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 172 m² the property is well over the postcode median (122 m² across 27 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £190,000 sits 100% above the 2008 sale of £95,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£51/sq ft) was about 46.7% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2009. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
