About 1 Halfpenny Green Cottages
1 Halfpenny Green Cottages is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Bobbington, Stourbridge, Stourbridge (DY7 5EJ). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2015) shows an F (score 36), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 105), a 5-band jump. Main heating runs on house coal. The latest certificate is from September 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 73 m² it sits well below the postcode median (128 m² across 5 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). On the market in January 2018 and unlisted since — roughly 8 years. Today's modelled estimate of £366,000 is 49.4% above the 2018 sale price. One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2009.
