Overview

About 26 Cygnet Road

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

26 Cygnet Road is a semi-detached house in West Bromwich (B70 9RH). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in October 2013 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £207,000 sits 126.2% above the 2015 sale of £91,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£108/sq ft) was about 28.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in January 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.
