Overview

About 8 Albany Gardens

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

8 Albany Gardens is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Solihull (B91 2PT). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. At 84 m² this is the 38th smallest of 45 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 65–88 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B across 45 units on file. The latest certificate (January 2015) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The latest certificate is from January 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since July 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £232,000 sits 231.4% above the 1999 sale of £70,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£77/sq ft) was about 61.9% below the postcode norm.
