About 5 Ferndown Road

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

5 Ferndown Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Solihull (B91 2AS). It has a recorded floor area of 127 m² (around 1367 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (February 2015); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £553,000 is 38.3% above the 2015 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£293/sq ft) was about 15.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last changed hands 11 years ago, in July 2015.
