Overview

About 1a

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

1a is a five-bedroom detached house in Sutton Coldfield (B74 2NY). It has a recorded floor area of 316 m² (around 3401 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (October 2023) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73).

It hasn't traded since March 2008, a hold of 18 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 316 m² the property is well over the postcode median (216 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2004–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 20.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £1,352,000 sits 59.1% above the 2008 sale of £850,000. 7 planning records sit against the property, 6 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

Method

How to read this page

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 1a is modelled from its 316 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in B74 2NY. 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 1a. 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 1a was lodged in October 2023 at band D and is valid until October 2033. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 7 applications are matched to 1a. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 19 schools and 4 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B74 2NY, not by walking route.
Council tax band
1a is in council tax band G. 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.
