About 5 Watney Grove
5 Watney Grove is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Birmingham (B44 0AX). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (February 2015) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in February 2013 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Average, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
Today's modelled estimate of £204,000 sits 108.2% above the 2013 sale of £98,000. Last sold in December 2013, so it's been off the market for around 12 years. One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2021.
