Overview

About 1 Cranbourne Road

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

1 Cranbourne Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Birmingham (B44 0BU). It has a recorded floor area of 85 m² (around 915 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (April 2014) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 3 certificates since February 2013. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Average; while lighting dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 2013–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 72.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £188,000 sits 63.5% above the 2014 sale of £115,000. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 77% of similar EPCs). On the market in March 2014 and unlisted since — roughly 12 years.
