71a, Kington Way, Birmingham, B33 8PU

71a is a four-bedroom detached house in Birmingham (B33 8PU). It has a recorded floor area of 99 m² (around 1066 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows a C (score 71). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 86). The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Held since November 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Sale prices here have outpaced Birmingham HPI: 10.6% per year against 0% for the wider region. Today's modelled estimate of £294,000 sits 57.6% above the 2007 sale of £186,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£175/sq ft) was about 67.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 99 m² the property is well over the postcode median (64 m² across 40 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2006. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
