About 20 Alder Way
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
20 Alder Way is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Sutton Coldfield (B74 3SY). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in July 2015 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
Across 2015–2023, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.4% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£348/sq ft) was about 71.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sale on file: £300,000 in July 2023.

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 20 Alder Way is modelled from its 80 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in B74 3SY. 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 20 Alder Way. 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 20 Alder Way was lodged in March 2016 at band D and expired in March 2026, 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. None is matched to 20 Alder Way. 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 3 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B74 3SY, not by walking route.
- Council tax band
- 20 Alder Way is in council tax band C. 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.
