Apartment 3, 36 Ryland Street, Birmingham, B16 8DB

Apartment 3 is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Birmingham (B16 8DB). It has a recorded floor area of 40 m² (around 431 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2025) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in March 2015 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Average to Very Good. Main heating runs on electricity. At 40 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 35 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 37–91 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B across 35 units on file.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in June 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 40 m² it sits well below the postcode median (68 m² across 70 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£314/sq ft) was about 28.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
