About 120 Douglas Road

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

120 Douglas Road is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Acocks Green, Birmingham, Birmingham (B27 6HW). It has a recorded floor area of 129 m² (around 1389 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2014) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (August 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 73), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 129 m² it's 25.2% larger than the typical home in the postcode (103 m² median across 22 EPCs).
