About 15 Applecross
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
15 Applecross is a four-bedroom detached house in Four Oaks, Sutton Coldfield, Sutton Coldfield (B74 2RD). It has a recorded floor area of 271 m² (around 2917 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band H. The latest certificate (January 2015) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in March 2011 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and lighting dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). The latest certificate is from January 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

Today's modelled estimate of £1,780,000 is 11% below the 2025 sale of £2,000,000, running counter to the wider postcode trend, which makes the EPC and condition history especially worth a look.

Most recent transfer was February 2025 at £2,000,000 — fresh data. 7 planning records sit against the property, 6 approved, 1 refused.

Start your researchHow 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 15 Applecross is modelled from its 271 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in B74 2RD. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 15 Applecross. 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 15 Applecross was lodged in January 2015 at band D and expired in January 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 7 applications are matched to 15 Applecross. 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 14 schools and 11 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B74 2RD, not by walking route.
- Council tax band
- 15 Applecross is in council tax band H. 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.
