About 7 Ridgeway

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

7 Ridgeway is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Edgbaston, Birmingham, Birmingham (B17 8JB). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 893 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (July 2013) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since June 2013. Between certificates, lighting dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump.
