Overview

About 9 Blackberry Lane

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

9 Blackberry Lane is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Sutton Coldfield (B74 4JE). It has a recorded floor area of 120 m² (around 1290 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (November 2009) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 56). The latest certificate is from November 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since December 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 120 m² the property is well over the postcode median (81 m² across 44 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £290,000 sits 61.1% above the 2009 sale of £180,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£139/sq ft) was about 21.7% below the postcode norm.

How to read this page

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 9 Blackberry Lane is modelled from its 120 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in B74 4JE. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 9 Blackberry 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 9 Blackberry Lane was lodged in November 2009 at band E and expired in November 2019, 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. None is matched to 9 Blackberry 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 10 schools and 16 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B74 4JE, not by walking route.
Council tax band
9 Blackberry Lane is in council tax band B. 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.
