Overview

About 29 Wood Lane

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

29 Wood Lane is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Harborne, Birmingham, Birmingham (B17 9AY). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 923 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2009) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The latest certificate is from January 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a basement. Period features are noted in the property record. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 72% of similar EPCs). Across 2013–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 13.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £340,000 is 23.6% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£298/sq ft) was about 46.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in May 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.

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 29 Wood Lane is modelled from its 86 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in B17 9AY. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 29 Wood Lane. 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 29 Wood Lane was lodged in January 2009 at band E and expired in January 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. None is matched to 29 Wood Lane. 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 43 schools and 1 stop listed are measured in a straight line from B17 9AY, not by walking route.
Council tax band
29 Wood Lane 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.
