Overview

About 17 Westhay Road

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

17 Westhay Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Birmingham (B28 9NN). It has a recorded floor area of 175 m² (around 1884 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since August 2014. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average; while lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

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 17 Westhay Road is modelled from its 175 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in B28 9NN. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 17 Westhay 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 17 Westhay Road was lodged in March 2015 at band D and expired in March 2025, 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 17 Westhay 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 42 schools and 6 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B28 9NN, not by walking route.
Council tax band
17 Westhay Road is in council tax band B. 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.
