About Flat 1
Flat 1 is a mid-terrace house in Dudley (DY1 1DU). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 700 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. At 65 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (65–76 m²). The building's EPC ratings span G to C across 4 units on file. The latest certificate (August 2021) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (July 2016); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.
Today's modelled estimate of £145,000 is 60.8% below the 2017 sale of £370,000, below the original sale price, which typically signals condition or completion-status changes worth verifying. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£529/sq ft) was about 374.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 78% of similar EPCs). Last sold in October 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years.
