About 8 Arkley Grove
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
8 Arkley Grove is an end-of-terrace house in Birmingham (B28 9PH). It has a recorded floor area of 127 m² (around 1367 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (August 2021) shows a C (score 73). When first surveyed in April 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Average to Very Good and hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 83).
It hasn't traded since December 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 127 m² the property is well over the postcode median (66 m² across 16 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2007–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at -3.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £239,000 sits 143.9% above the 2009 sale of £98,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£72/sq ft) was about 50.2% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2020. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

- 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 8 Arkley Grove. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
