7 Elmwood Road, Birmingham, B24 9NW

7 Elmwood Road is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Birmingham (B24 9NW). It has a recorded floor area of 118 m² (around 1270 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (October 2013) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since March 2010. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since June 2010 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 118 m² the property is well over the postcode median (51 m² across 24 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 79% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2004. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £214,000 is 29.7% above the 2010 sale price.
