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 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since February 2010. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Poor; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
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 £258,000 sits 426.5% above the 1997 sale of £49,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£58/sq ft) was about 63.5% below the postcode norm. At 78 m² it's 15.2% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (92 m² median across 21 EPCs).
