Overview

About 1 Brook Way

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

1 Brook Way is a semi-detached house in Birmingham (B16 0QR). It has a recorded floor area of 129 m² (around 1389 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2016) shows a C (score 74). The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since February 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 86).

Held since November 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 129 m² the property is well over the postcode median (74 m² across 22 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £311,000 sits 70.9% above the 2009 sale of £181,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£131/sq ft) was about 37.1% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2019. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
