Overview

About 15 Birch Tree Grove

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

15 Birch Tree Grove is a five-bedroom detached house in Solihull (B91 1HD). It has a recorded floor area of 485 m² (around 5220 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band H. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include a conservatory. The latest certificate (April 2026) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since January 2010. Between certificates, main heating went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). Main heating runs on electricity. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

It hasn't traded since June 2007, a hold of 19 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 485 m² the property is well over the postcode median (221 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £1,621,000 sits 244.9% above the 2007 sale of £470,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£90/sq ft) was about 70.2% below the postcode norm. 3 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, a porch and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 15 Birch Tree Grove is modelled from its 485 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in B91 1HD. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 15 Birch Tree Grove. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 15 Birch Tree Grove was lodged in April 2026 at band D and is valid until April 2036. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 3 applications are matched to 15 Birch Tree Grove. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 18 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 37 schools and 2 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B91 1HD, not by walking route.
Council tax band
15 Birch Tree Grove is in council tax band H. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
