Overview

About 30 Austin Road

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

30 Austin Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Birmingham (B21 8NU). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (June 2016) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 86 m² the property is well over the postcode median (37 m² across 27 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 78% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £211,000 is 31.9% above the 2021 sale price. Most recent transfer: September 2021 at £160,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
