Overview

About 17 Mostyn Road

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

17 Mostyn Road is a mid-terrace house in Handsworth, Birmingham, Birmingham (B21 9DY). It has a recorded floor area of 119 m² (around 1281 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (July 2014); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 69), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since November 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 £191,000 sits 445.7% above the 1996 sale of £35,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£27/sq ft) was about 58.9% below the postcode norm. At 119 m² it's 15.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (103 m² median across 22 EPCs).
