Overview

About 159 Great Bridge Street

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

159 Great Bridge Street is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in West Bromwich (B70 0DJ). It has a recorded floor area of 114 m² (around 1227 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (July 2021) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79).

Held since February 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 114 m² the property is well over the postcode median (58 m² across 8 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2007–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 25% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £172,000 sits 102.4% above the 2008 sale of £85,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£69/sq ft) was about 36.2% below the postcode norm.
