14 Dale Street, Smethwick, B66 4HY
About 14 Dale Street
14 Dale Street is a mid-terrace house in Smethwick (B66 4HY). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 807 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (May 2014); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since June 1998 — that's 28 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £153,000 sits 544.2% above the 1998 sale of £23,750. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£29/sq ft) was about 69.3% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 74% of similar EPCs).
