About 324 Orphanage Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
324 Orphanage Road is a two-bedroom detached house in Sutton Coldfield (B72 1BE). It has a recorded floor area of 100 m² (around 1081 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2010) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The latest certificate is from June 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in February 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1995–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £363,000 sits 81.5% above the 2008 sale of £200,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£185/sq ft) was about 15.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 100 m² it's 18.4% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (123 m² median across 6 EPCs).

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 324 Orphanage Road is modelled from its 100 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in B72 1BE. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for 324 Orphanage Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 324 Orphanage Road was lodged in June 2010 at band D and expired in June 2020, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.

- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 33 schools and 3 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B72 1BE, not by walking route.
- Council tax band
- 324 Orphanage Road is in council tax band E. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
