15 Balmoral Road is a two-bedroom detached house in Stourbridge (DY8 5HR). It has a recorded floor area of 59 m² (around 635 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2015) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (May 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and lighting dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since August 1995, a hold of 31 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 £256,000 sits 357.1% above the 1995 sale of £56,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£88/sq ft) was about 56.2% below the postcode norm. At 59 m² it's 21.3% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (75 m² median across 13 EPCs).
