Overview

About 9 Douglas Road

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

9 Douglas Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Handsworth, Birmingham, Birmingham (B21 9HG). It has a recorded floor area of 187 m² (around 2013 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (November 2015) shows an F (score 28), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 61), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in September 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 187 m² the property is well over the postcode median (103 m² across 45 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £194,000 is 42.6% above the 2007 sale price.
