About 18 Edgcombe Road
18 Edgcombe Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Birmingham (B28 8AY). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (June 2026) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 4 certificates since February 2010. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
It hasn't traded since November 1997, a hold of 29 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £219,000 sits 346.9% above the 1997 sale of £49,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£59/sq ft) was about 63% below the postcode norm. At 77 m² it's 16.3% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (92 m² median across 21 EPCs).
