38 St Peters Road is a mid-terrace house in Handsworth, Birmingham, Birmingham (B20 3RP). It has a recorded floor area of 154 m² (around 1658 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (August 2014) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in March 2014 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since February 1999 — that's 27 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. At 154 m² the property is well over the postcode median (67 m² across 61 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £209,000 sits 596.7% above the 1999 sale of £30,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£18/sq ft) was about 89.4% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2014. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
