Overview

About 234 Highfield Road

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

234 Highfield Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Hall Green, Birmingham, Birmingham (B28 0DW). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 980 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2014) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in December 2008 the rating was G, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Poor to Very Good, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2013. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
