About 357 Birmingham Road
357 Birmingham Road is a five-bedroom detached house in Sutton Coldfield (B72 1DL). It has a recorded floor area of 163 m² (around 1755 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (March 2024) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in October 2015 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good. Other recorded features include a conservatory. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
Untraded for 29 years, with the last transfer in July 1997. 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 £621,000 sits 381.4% above the 1997 sale of £129,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£74/sq ft) was about 64.3% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2004. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 81% of similar EPCs).
