Overview

About 18 Sefton Road

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

18 Sefton Road is a four-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Birmingham (B16 9DR). It has a recorded floor area of 97 m² (around 1044 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2020) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in March 2010 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump. The home occupies a corner plot.

It hasn't traded since December 1996, a hold of 29 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £212,000 sits 606.7% above the 1996 sale of £30,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£29/sq ft) was about 73.7% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 77% of similar EPCs).
