1 Cobham Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Stourbridge (DY8 2PD). It has a recorded floor area of 156 m² (around 1677 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (April 2011) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The latest certificate is from April 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
Untraded for 22 years, with the last transfer in June 2004. Today's modelled estimate of £553,000 sits 121.2% above the 2004 sale of £250,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£149/sq ft) was about 37.6% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2022. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 156 m² it's 23.7% larger than the typical home in the postcode (126 m² median across 12 EPCs).
