About 8 George Street

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

8 George Street is a mid-terrace house in Handsworth, Birmingham, Birmingham (B21 0EG). It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 775 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (October 2014) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
