About 16 Dornton Road
16 Dornton Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Birmingham (B30 2TE). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2019) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since July 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 3-band jump.
It hasn't traded since March 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £256,000 sits 73% above the 2007 sale of £148,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£176/sq ft) was about 19.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
