3 Sweetpool Lane is a five-bedroom detached house in Hagley, Stourbridge, Stourbridge (DY8 2XH). It has a recorded floor area of 257 m² (around 2764 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 63). The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.
Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in August 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 257 m² the property is well over the postcode median (178 m² across 8 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2017. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £823,000 is 47% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£203/sq ft) was about 20% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
