About 2 Alston Road
2 Alston Road is a semi-detached house in Birmingham (B9 5UN). It has a recorded floor area of 102 m² (around 1094 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (October 2010) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 55). The latest certificate is from October 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 102 m² the property is well over the postcode median (78 m² across 19 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2013. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
