About 118 College Road
118 College Road is a detached house in Perry Barr, Birmingham, Birmingham (B44 8DA). It has a recorded floor area of 117 m² (around 1259 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2013) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). The latest certificate is from September 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since September 2008, a hold of 18 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. At 117 m² the property is well over the postcode median (87 m² across 11 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2000–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £297,000 sits 74.7% above the 2008 sale of £170,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£135/sq ft) was about 16% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2001. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
