Overview

About 3 The Old School

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

3 The Old School is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Swindon, Dudley, Dudley (DY3 4PG). It has a recorded floor area of 107 m² (around 1152 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2024) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since July 2013. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since July 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. Today's modelled estimate of £301,000 sits 64.5% above the 2007 sale of £183,000. 2 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count.
