Overview

About 163 Colonial Road

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

163 Colonial Road is a mid-terrace house in Birmingham (B9 5NP). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 990 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (October 2015) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since June 2008, a hold of 18 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. Today's modelled estimate of £173,000 sits 60.2% above the 2008 sale of £108,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2024. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
