20 Elmfield Road, Birmingham, B36 0HL
About 20 Elmfield Road
20 Elmfield Road is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Birmingham (B36 0HL). It has a recorded floor area of 131 m² (around 1410 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 86). The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
At 131 m² the property is well over the postcode median (82 m² across 33 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 88% of similar EPCs). Across 2007–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £353,000 sits 53.5% above the 2015 sale of £230,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2007. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in September 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.
