Overview

About 12 Gordon Road

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

12 Gordon Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Harborne, Birmingham, Birmingham (B17 9HB). It has a recorded floor area of 141 m² (around 1518 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (April 2012) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since February 2010. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Average; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a basement.

At 141 m² the property is well over the postcode median (82 m² across 29 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 76% of similar EPCs). Last sold in October 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. Across 2005–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £451,000 is 21.9% above the 2015 sale price.
