Overview

About 21 Douglas Road

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

21 Douglas Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Handsworth, Birmingham, Birmingham (B21 9HG). It has a recorded floor area of 105 m² (around 1135 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (January 2009) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The latest certificate is from January 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in July 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 76% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £149,000 is 16.4% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£113/sq ft) was about 67% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
