Overview

About 12 Birch Road

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

12 Birch Road is a three-bedroom detached house in King's Lynn (PE32 1UN). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 980 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2012) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in April 2010 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Very Good and main heating went from Poor to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from May 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 2010–2013, sale prices on this property compounded at 6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £335,000 sits 53.7% above the 2013 sale of £218,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£223/sq ft) was about 25.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in April 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.
