52 Churchward Close is a mid-terrace house in Stourbridge (DY8 4HX). It has a recorded floor area of 76 m² (around 818 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (November 2013) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since January 2013. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and window efficiency went from Average to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Today's modelled estimate of £150,000 sits 275% above the 2013 sale of £40,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£49/sq ft) was about 53.9% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 72% of similar EPCs). Last sold in March 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.
