About 19 Forge Lane
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
19 Forge Lane is a semi-detached house in Little Aston, Sutton Coldfield, Sutton Coldfield (B74 3BE). It has a recorded floor area of 150 m² (around 1611 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (September 2010) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 63). The latest certificate is from September 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since March 2011 — that's 15 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. At 150 m² the property is well over the postcode median (109 m² across 20 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 70% of similar EPCs). Across 1997–2011, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £512,000 sits 58.5% above the 2011 sale of £323,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£200/sq ft) was about 22.7% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2004.

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 19 Forge Lane is modelled from its 150 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in B74 3BE. 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. 4 sales are recorded for 19 Forge Lane. 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 19 Forge Lane was lodged in September 2010 at band E and expired in September 2020, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 19 Forge Lane. 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 5 schools and 18 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B74 3BE, not by walking route.
- Council tax band
- 19 Forge Lane is in council tax band E. 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.
