Held since November 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Sale prices here have outpaced Birmingham HPI: 5.3% per year against 0% for the wider region. Today's modelled estimate of £211,000 sits 83.5% above the 2008 sale of £115,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£107/sq ft) was about 17.9% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2004. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 100 m² it's 29.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (77 m² median across 15 EPCs).
