34a, Bilston Road, Tipton, DY4 0BZ
About 34a
34a is a detached house in Tipton (DY4 0BZ). It has a recorded floor area of 205 m² (around 2207 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (May 2025) shows a C (score 74).
It hasn't traded since May 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. At 205 m² the property is well over the postcode median (75 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £492,000 sits 64% above the 2007 sale of £300,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2018. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
