Overview

About 6 Birch Drive

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

6 Birch Drive is a detached house in Little Aston, Sutton Coldfield, Sutton Coldfield (B74 4HW). It has a recorded floor area of 161 m² (around 1728 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (August 2009) shows an F (score 35), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 69), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since November 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 161 m² it's 22.7% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (208 m² median across 7 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £639,000 sits 51.1% above the 2009 sale of £423,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2010. Past consents include an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
