12 Brook Street, West Bromwich, B70 9HL
About 12 Brook Street
12 Brook Street is a detached house in West Bromwich (B70 9HL). It has a recorded floor area of 99 m² (around 1066 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows an E (score 53), 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, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since January 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. 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 £245,000 sits 380.4% above the 1999 sale of £51,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£48/sq ft) was about 70% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2017. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 99 m² it's 17.6% larger than the typical home in the postcode (84 m² median across 12 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs).
