Overview

About 81 Wattville Road

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

81 Wattville Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Birmingham (B21 0DL). It has a recorded floor area of 66 m² (around 710 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (July 2024) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since March 2010. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and lighting went from Average to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump.

Held since June 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £146,000 sits 62.2% above the 2007 sale of £90,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£127/sq ft) was about 40.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 66 m² it's 21% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (84 m² median across 22 EPCs).
