Overview

About 126 Douglas Road

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

126 Douglas Road is a mid-terrace house in Acocks Green, Birmingham, Birmingham (B27 6HW). It has a recorded floor area of 100 m² (around 1080 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (August 2011) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (July 2010); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 77% of similar EPCs). Across 1997–2017, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £185,000 is 37% above the 2017 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£125/sq ft) was about 27.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in October 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years.
