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 £355,000 sits 79.7% above the 2009 sale of £197,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£128/sq ft) was about 25.9% below the postcode norm.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 7 Cole Valley Road is modelled from its 143 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in B28 0DD. 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 7 Cole Valley Road. 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 7 Cole Valley Road was lodged in October 2008 at band E and expired in October 2018, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 7 Cole Valley Road. 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 42 schools and 5 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B28 0DD, not by walking route.
Council tax band
7 Cole Valley Road is in council tax band D. 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.
