13 Dunkirk Avenue, West Bromwich, B70 0EP

13 Dunkirk Avenue is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in West Bromwich (B70 0EP). It has a recorded floor area of 82 m² (around 883 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (October 2015) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in November 2010 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, lighting went from Poor to Average and main heating went from Very Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since March 2007 — that's 19 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. Today's modelled estimate of £177,000 sits 58% above the 2007 sale of £112,000. At 82 m² it's 26.2% larger than the typical home in the postcode (65 m² median across 8 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs).
