Overview

About 17 Poplar Avenue

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

17 Poplar Avenue is a mid-terrace house in Kings Heath, Birmingham, Birmingham (B14 7AE). It has a recorded floor area of 66 m² (around 710 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (April 2013) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since November 2007, a hold of 19 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. Across 1997–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £248,000 sits 58% above the 2007 sale of £157,000.
