Overview

About 7 Cole Valley Road

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

7 Cole Valley Road is a five-bedroom semi-detached house in Birmingham (B28 0DD). It has a recorded floor area of 143 m² (around 1544 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in July 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 143 m² the property is well over the postcode median (92 m² across 14 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £342,000 sits 73.2% above the 2009 sale of £197,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£128/sq ft) was about 25.7% below the postcode norm.
