Overview

About 8 Elmwood Road

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

8 Elmwood Road is a semi-detached house in Sutton Coldfield (B74 2DQ). It has a recorded floor area of 89 m² (around 958 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (August 2015) shows a G (score 10), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 5-band jump. Main heating runs on to be used only when there is no heating/hot. The latest certificate is from August 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 89 m² it's 24.6% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (118 m² median across 7 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £326,000 sits 55.2% above the 2015 sale of £210,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£219/sq ft) was about 40.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. On the market in November 2015 and unlisted since — roughly 11 years.
