2 Durley Road, Birmingham, B25 8EE

2 Durley Road is a semi-detached house in Birmingham (B25 8EE). It has a recorded floor area of 95 m² (around 1023 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2014) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since November 2013. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Poor; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since December 2007 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Sale prices here have outpaced Birmingham HPI: 6.6% per year against 0% for the wider region. Today's modelled estimate of £246,000 is 44.7% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£166/sq ft) was about 16.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 95 m² the property is well over the postcode median (63 m² across 32 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2019. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
