About Ash Court
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Ash Court is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Stourbridge (DY8 1NW). It has a recorded floor area of 57 m² (around 614 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1967-1975. At 57 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across Ash Court (57–74 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (January 2024) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (October 2010); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average and hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.
It hasn't traded since October 1998, a hold of 28 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £135,000 sits 176.9% above the 1998 sale of £48,750. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£79/sq ft) was about 51% below the postcode norm. 4 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs).
