16 Chaucer Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Stourbridge (DY8 4PL). It has a recorded floor area of 97 m² (around 1042 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2010) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 69). The latest certificate is from May 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since September 1995 — that's 31 years off the open market, well above the local norm. 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 £305,000 sits 351.9% above the 1995 sale of £67,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£65/sq ft) was about 43.9% below the postcode norm.
