Overview

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 £157,000 sits 96.2% 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.
