Overview

About 17 Southam Close

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

17 Southam Close is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Birmingham (B28 0AE). It has a recorded floor area of 54 m² (around 581 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (November 2017) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 3-band jump. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 54 m² it sits well below the postcode median (91 m² across 9 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: a loft conversion approved in 2018. Past consents include a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £270,000 is 21.3% above the 2018 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£383/sq ft) was about 97.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in May 2018, so it's been off the market for around 8 years.

Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 17 Southam Close is modelled from its 54 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in B28 0AE. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 17 Southam Close. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 17 Southam Close was lodged in November 2017 at band E and is valid until November 2027. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 17 Southam Close. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 50 schools and 5 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B28 0AE, not by walking route.
Council tax band
17 Southam Close is in council tax band B. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
