About 6 Invention Avenue
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
6 Invention Avenue is a four-bedroom detached house in Birmingham (B21 9AF). It has a recorded floor area of 122 m² (around 1313 sq ft) and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2013) returns a high B (score 89), putting the home a stone's throw from an A rating. The latest certificate is from April 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
At 122 m² the property is well over the postcode median (87 m² across 20 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £265,000 sits 60.6% above the 2013 sale of £164,995. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2015. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in March 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 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 6 Invention Avenue is modelled from its 122 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in B21 9AF. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 6 Invention Avenue. 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 6 Invention Avenue was lodged in April 2013 at band B and expired in April 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 6 Invention Avenue. 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 58 schools and 10 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B21 9AF, not by walking route.
- Council tax band
- 6 Invention Avenue is in council tax band C. 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.
