About 5 Catholic Lane
5 Catholic Lane is a three-bedroom detached house in Dudley (DY3 3UE). It has a recorded floor area of 89 m² (around 958 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2012) shows an F (score 36), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 68), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
At 89 m² it sits well below the postcode median (176 m² across 10 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2002. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1996–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.8% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£491/sq ft) was about 145.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold July 2022 for £470,000.
