Overview

About 15 Alexandra Road

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

15 Alexandra Road is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Handsworth, Birmingham, Birmingham (B21 0PG). It has a recorded floor area of 46 m² (around 495 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band A. At 46 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (46–83 m²). The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (March 2024) shows a C (score 72). When first surveyed in April 2012 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in September 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 46 m² it sits well below the postcode median (73 m² across 6 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 1 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Across 2006–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 37.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £96,000 is 27.2% above the 2007 sale price.
