About 26 Clent Road
26 Clent Road is an end-of-terrace house in Handsworth, Birmingham, Birmingham (B21 8DJ). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 990 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (May 2014) shows a G (score 13), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at G across 2 certificates since February 2014. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 5-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from May 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since May 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. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £159,000 is 23.3% above the 2007 sale price.
