53 Andrew Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in West Bromwich (B71 3QG). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 836 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2010) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since January 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 £225,000 sits 57.3% above the 2007 sale of £143,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£171/sq ft) was about 18.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
