Overview

About 3 Blackwood Drive

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

3 Blackwood Drive is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Sutton Coldfield (B74 3QF). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1012 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. It has already been extended once and our model flags further extension potential, a sign of buyer flexibility. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £365,000 sits 55.3% above the 2014 sale of £235,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2024. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. 12 years since the last transfer (October 2014).
