25 Burman Road, Shirley, Solihull, B90 2BE

25 Burman Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Shirley, Solihull, Solihull (B90 2BE). It has a recorded floor area of 176 m² (around 1893 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (April 2011) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The latest certificate is from April 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since April 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. At 176 m² the property is well over the postcode median (90 m² across 6 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £584,000 sits 57.8% above the 2008 sale of £370,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£195/sq ft) was about 20.8% 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.
