About 4 Bracken Drive
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
4 Bracken Drive is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Sutton Coldfield (B75 7RF). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (April 2014) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in May 2012 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and main heating went from Very Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Today's modelled estimate of £229,000 sits 129% above the 2014 sale of £100,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£108/sq ft) was about 21.9% below the postcode norm. Last sold in January 2014, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.

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 4 Bracken Drive is modelled from its 86 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in B75 7RF. 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 4 Bracken Drive. 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 4 Bracken Drive was lodged in April 2014 at band D and expired in April 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 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 4 Bracken Drive. 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 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 17 schools and 4 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B75 7RF, not by walking route.
- Council tax band
- 4 Bracken Drive 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.
