About 51 Fitz Roy Avenue
51 Fitz Roy Avenue is a five-bedroom semi-detached house in Birmingham (B17 8RL). It has a recorded floor area of 165 m² (around 1776 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (November 2016) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since July 2009. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Average; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Average and lighting dropped from Very Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 66).
It hasn't traded since September 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales.
