57 King Street is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Wollaston, Stourbridge, Stourbridge (DY8 3QE). It has a recorded floor area of 81 m² (around 872 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (March 2025) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
Held since September 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm.
