About 26 Vicarage Road

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

26 Vicarage Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Harborne, Birmingham, Birmingham (B17 0SP). It has a recorded floor area of 112 m² (around 1207 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2009) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The latest certificate is from February 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 112 m² the property is well over the postcode median (84 m² across 30 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.

Across 2006–2011, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £337,000 is 34.8% above the 2011 sale price.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 26 Vicarage Road is modelled from its 112 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in B17 0SP. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 4 sales are recorded for 26 Vicarage Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 26 Vicarage Road was lodged in February 2009 at band D and expired in February 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 26 Vicarage Road. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 39 schools and 2 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B17 0SP, not by walking route.
Council tax band
26 Vicarage Road is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
