4 Chaucer Close is a four-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Stourbridge (DY8 4PL). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 980 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band B. Other recorded features include a conservatory. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The latest certificate (June 2025) shows a C (score 73).
It hasn't traded since January 1998, a hold of 28 years that's notably long for the area. 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 £288,000 sits 443.9% above the 1998 sale of £52,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£54/sq ft) was about 53.1% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 80% of similar EPCs).
