288 Gospel Lane is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Birmingham (B27 7AH).

Held since February 2000 — that's 26 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £199,000 sits 221% above the 2000 sale of £62,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£90/sq ft) was about 41.2% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2016. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
