About 17 Fitz Roy Avenue
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
17 Fitz Roy Avenue is a semi-detached house in Birmingham (B17 8RL). It has a recorded floor area of 168 m² (around 1808 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (May 2013) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

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 £616,000 sits 262.4% above the 1998 sale of £170,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£94/sq ft) was about 61.2% below the postcode norm. 4 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 2 refused.
