About 2 Forge Lane
2 Forge Lane is a semi-detached house in Little Aston, Sutton Coldfield, Sutton Coldfield (B74 3BE). It has a recorded floor area of 174 m² (around 1872 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (February 2009) shows an F (score 25), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The latest certificate is from February 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since October 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 174 m² the property is well over the postcode median (109 m² across 20 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £592,000 sits 62.2% above the 2009 sale of £365,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£195/sq ft) was about 15.1% below the postcode norm.
