Overview

About 1 Fairfax Road

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

1 Fairfax Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Sutton Coldfield (B75 7JX). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 797 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (December 2013) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since November 2013. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since September 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2006–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 29.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £216,000 is 49% above the 2007 sale price.
