10 Charminster Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Birmingham (B25 8RH). It has a recorded floor area of 123 m² (around 1324 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2016) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (September 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 2-band jump. The home occupies a corner plot.

It hasn't traded since December 2009, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 123 m² the property is well over the postcode median (88 m² across 18 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £250,000 sits 56.3% above the 2009 sale of £159,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£121/sq ft) was about 37.1% below the postcode norm.
