About 312 Birmingham Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
312 Birmingham Road is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Sutton Coldfield (B72 1DP). It has a recorded floor area of 30 m² (around 323 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band F. At 30 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (30–252 m²). The building's EPC ratings span G to B across 18 units on file. Other recorded features include a conservatory and a self-contained annexe. The latest certificate (July 2019) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (June 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 69).
It hasn't traded since March 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 30 m² it sits well below the postcode median (131 m² across 17 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 1 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2002. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2002–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £443,000 is 16.6% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£1,177/sq ft) was about 372% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
