Overview

About 262 Highfield Road

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

262 Highfield Road is a five-bedroom semi-detached house in Hall Green, Birmingham, Birmingham (B28 0DP). It has a recorded floor area of 295 m² (around 3175 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since March 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and window efficiency went from Poor to Average; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

At 295 m² the property is well over the postcode median (156 m² across 8 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2009. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2009–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at 15.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £530,000 is 31.8% above the 2012 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£127/sq ft) was about 29.3% below the postcode norm. Last changed hands 14 years ago, in October 2012.
