Overview

About 45 Alston Road

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

45 Alston Road is a semi-detached house in Solihull (B91 2RP). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2023) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in September 2022 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 87).

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. Across 1995–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £301,000 sits 100.7% above the 2007 sale of £150,000.
