Overview

About 26 Lickey Square

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

26 Lickey Square is a five-bedroom semi-detached house in Lickey, Birmingham, Birmingham (B45 8HA). It has a recorded floor area of 243 m² (around 2615 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (June 2009) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The latest certificate is from June 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a basement. Period features are noted in the property record.

Held since August 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 243 m² the property is well over the postcode median (102 m² across 18 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £797,000 sits 52.1% above the 2009 sale of £524,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£200/sq ft) was about 26.8% below the postcode norm.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 26 Lickey Square is modelled from its 243 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in B45 8HA. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 26 Lickey Square. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 26 Lickey Square was lodged in June 2009 at band E and expired in June 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 26 Lickey Square. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 12 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B45 8HA, not by walking route.
Council tax band
26 Lickey Square is in council tax band G. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
