Overview

About 118 Vivian Road

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

118 Vivian Road is a five-bedroom detached house in Birmingham (B17 0DJ). It has a recorded floor area of 213 m² (around 2293 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (April 2012) shows an F (score 36), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.

Held since December 2001 — that's 24 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 213 m² the property is well over the postcode median (161 m² across 11 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 73% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £787,000 sits 171.4% above the 2001 sale of £289,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£126/sq ft) was about 54.4% below the postcode norm.
