About 21 Windermere Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
21 Windermere Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Handsworth, Birmingham, Birmingham (B21 9RQ). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 764 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (November 2024) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 2-band jump.
It hasn't traded since November 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £156,000 sits 71.4% above the 2009 sale of £91,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2010. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 71 m² it's 16.5% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (85 m² median across 29 EPCs).

- 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 21 Windermere Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
