Overview

About Ivydene

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

Ivydene is a detached house in Lea Marston, Sutton Coldfield, Sutton Coldfield (B76 0BW). It has a recorded floor area of 117 m² (around 1259 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (November 2013) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in August 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since July 2010 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Today's modelled estimate of £494,000 is 40.3% above the 2010 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£280/sq ft) was about 40.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
