Overview

About 56 Donegal Road

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

56 Donegal Road is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Sutton Coldfield (B74 2AB). It has a recorded floor area of 121 m² (around 1302 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2018) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 74).

Held since May 2008 — that's 18 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. Across 2001–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £415,000 sits 124.3% above the 2008 sale of £185,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£142/sq ft) was about 27.5% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 121 m² it's 21.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (100 m² median across 24 EPCs).

Where sold prices come from
