About 6 Forest Drive
6 Forest Drive is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Birmingham (B17 9HW). It has a recorded floor area of 56 m² (around 603 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2026) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since February 2009. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). Main heating runs on electricity. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
It hasn't traded since July 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 56 m² the property is well over the postcode median (42 m² across 24 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.
