Overview

About 89 Ridgeway

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

89 Ridgeway is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Edgbaston, Birmingham, Birmingham (B17 8JD). It has a recorded floor area of 116 m² (around 1249 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (February 2017) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in October 2016 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump.

Held since November 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm.

Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
