Overview

About 17 Lordswood Square

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

17 Lordswood Square is a semi-detached house in Birmingham (B17 9BS). It has a recorded floor area of 53 m² (around 570 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. At 53 m² this is the 39th smallest of 46 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 35–58 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 46 units on file. The latest certificate (December 2013) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from December 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since January 1996 — that's 30 years off the open market, well above the local norm. 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 £140,000 sits 250% above the 1996 sale of £40,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£70/sq ft) was about 61.9% below the postcode norm.
