Overview

About 284 Highfield Road

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

284 Highfield Road is a five-bedroom detached house in Hall Green, Birmingham, Birmingham (B28 0DR). It has a recorded floor area of 164 m² (around 1765 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2014) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in February 2013 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a corner plot.

Held since May 2003 — that's 23 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Today's modelled estimate of £516,000 sits 81.1% above the 2003 sale of £285,000. At 164 m² it's 19.7% larger than the typical home in the postcode (137 m² median across 4 EPCs).

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 284 Highfield Road is modelled from its 164 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in B28 0DR. 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 284 Highfield 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 284 Highfield Road was lodged in May 2014 at band D and expired in May 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 284 Highfield 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 41 schools and 5 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B28 0DR, not by walking route.
Council tax band
284 Highfield Road is in council tax band E. 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.
