About 79 Woodland Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
79 Woodland Road is a mid-terrace house in Handsworth, Birmingham, Birmingham (B21 0ET). It has a recorded floor area of 89 m² (around 958 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in October 2008 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and lighting went from Very Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Across 2006–2018, sale prices on this property compounded at 1.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £149,000 sits 86.3% above the 2018 sale of £80,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£84/sq ft) was about 19.6% below the postcode norm. Last sold in May 2018, so it's been off the market for around 8 years.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 79 Woodland Road is modelled from its 89 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in B21 0ET. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for 79 Woodland Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 79 Woodland Road was lodged in February 2016 at band D and expired in February 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 5 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 79 Woodland Road. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 53 schools and 10 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B21 0ET, not by walking route.
- Council tax band
- 79 Woodland Road is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
