Overview

About 25 Montague Road

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

25 Montague Road is a mid-terrace house in Handsworth, Birmingham, Birmingham (B21 9DF). It has a recorded floor area of 116 m² (around 1249 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (July 2026) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in June 2014 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

It hasn't traded since December 1996, a hold of 30 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £154,000 sits 333.8% above the 1996 sale of £35,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£28/sq ft) was about 69% below the postcode norm.
