10 Emily Gardens, Birmingham, B16 0ED

10 Emily Gardens is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Birmingham (B16 0ED). It has a recorded floor area of 107 m² (around 1152 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (February 2024) shows a C (score 72). When first surveyed in May 2012 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Good to Very Good, roof efficiency went from Average to Very Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 84).

It hasn't traded since May 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. At 107 m² the property is well over the postcode median (51 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £227,000 sits 116.2% above the 2007 sale of £105,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£91/sq ft) was about 42.3% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2018. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
